llustrations
:
Authors should use black and white illus-
trations whenever possible. Authors who include color illustrations
will be charged for the cost of color reproduction. These costs must
be paid before an article is published. Details on color costs can
be found at
. Authors
should indicate in the cover letter that they have the funds to pay
for any color figures in their paper.
6 M
etric
S
ystem
:
The metric system (SI Units) will be employed
throughout a manuscript except in cases where the English
System has special merit stemming from accepted conventional
usage (e.g., 9- by 9-inch photograph, 6-inch focal length). Authors
should refer to “Usage of the International System of Units,”
Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing
, 1978, 44 (7):
923-938.
7 E
quations
:
Authors should express equations as simply as pos-
sible. They should include only those equations required by an
average reader to understand the technical arguments in the man-
uscript. Manuscripts that appear to have excessive mathematical
notation may be returned to the author for revision. Whenever
possible, authors are encouraged to use the Insert and Symbol
capabilities of Microsoft Word to build simple equations. If that
is not possible, the author must indicate in the cover letter which
software was used to create the equations.
Microsoft Equation,
Microsoft Equation Editor, or MathType
format should be used
only if absolutely necessary. Equations must be numbered, but
unlike tables, figures, color plates, and line drawings should be
embedded in the text file.

eferences
:
A complete and accurate reference list is essential.
Only works cited in the text should be included. Cite references to
published literature in the text in alphabetical order by authors’
last names and date, as for example, Jones (1979), Jones and
Smith (1979) or (Jones, 1979; Jones and Smith, 1979), depending
on sentence construction. If there are more than two authors,
they should be cited as Jones et al. (1979) or (Jones
et al
., 1979).
Personal communications and unpublished data or reports should
not be included in the reference list but should be shown paren-
thetically in the text (Jones, unpublished data, 1979). Format for
references will be as follows:

cknowledgments
:
In keeping with the process of blind reviews,
