Editorial guidelines

The Invading Sea publishes opinion pieces submitted by the public on climate change and other environmental issues affecting Florida. Email the editor at theinvadingseafl@gmail.com with ideas for submissions and any questions about the submission process. 

The Invading Sea will consider pieces submitted for publication under the following editorial guidelines: 

Pieces must be accurate, fair and appropriately researched. The Invading Sea encourages civil discourse and does not publish personal attacks, insults, threats, hate speech and/or speech advocating violence. The Invading Sea does not publish pieces that promote commercial or private interests, seek fundraising donations, advocate for the election of specific candidates or are not aligned with the focus of the website. 

The Invading Sea reserves the right to publish or decline to publish pieces based on the foregoing requirements. However, if The Invading Sea declines to publish an author’s submission, the author may request a review by the website’s advisors. 

The Invading Sea reserves the right to edit all submissions for accuracy, clarity, length, libel and style. The editor may email the author to discuss any significant edits. By submitting content to the Invading Sea, the author agrees to public distribution. 

By sharing material to be published on The Invading Sea, the author warrants and represents that the author owns the copyright with respect to such material and that the author has the full and unencumbered right to share such material and that such posting will not infringe any rights or interests of others. 

Corrections 

The Invading Sea strives for accuracy in the articles we publish and promptly corrects errors. If you find an error in an article, please email the editor at theinvadingseafl@gmail.com. 

If a factual error is made — that is, more than a misspelling or simple typo — we note the correction at the end of the article and detail what was corrected. Additionally, we alert our media partners if any articles we distribute to them have an error so that they may issue their own corrections.
