Editorial

Abstract

This year will see a full transition of the Quaternary Australasia editorship to Carol Smith and Sanja van Huet, with Pia Atahan retiring mid-year. Carol and Sanja represent the twelfth and thirteenth editors in the line that began when Jeannette Hope and Bruce Thom began editing QA’s predecessor: the Australian Quaternary Newsletter. A strong focus of QA over its lifetime has been on publishing meeting reports and updates related to formal group projects, making QA a valuable asset for the Quaternary community. This strong focus is evident in the current issue of QA, with groups working within the framework of INQUA and PAGES represented.
