Abstract
Ambiente e Água – An International Journal of Applied Science just published its eighth issue, completing the third number of its third volume with all issues published on time. The number of submissions increased significantly and, as a result, the number of published papers. Eleven articles were published in this issue. The geographic and institutional distribution of authors also increased not only throughout Brazil, but from abroad as well. First authors are affiliated with 28 different institutions in Brazil and from 5 different international institutions. The average number of weekly visitors increased from ~ 300 per week in 2007 to ~ 700 in the last months. The international interest in the journal is evident by the number of countries and related geographical coverage of journal readers. One significant improvement was the increased number of highly qualified peer reviewers that registered as article evaluators, as presented in this issue.
