Policies for Submissions
Who Can Submit
The Berkeley Institute of the Environment (BIE) only publishes materials about work conducted under the auspices of BIE. For additional information, please contact BIE at info@bie.berkeley.edu.
Removal
A paper may be updated or removed from public view by sending a request to the system administrator at info@bie.berkeley.edu. However, a citation to the original version of the paper will always remain on the site.
Author Review
Authors are asked to review PDFs created from their papers within 5 days of being sent the PDF. At this stage, we're unable to make any changes beyond the rare error that occurs in PDF conversion.
