In its 31st year, MEPS is publishing Vol. 400. The rise of MEPS, from small beginnings in 1979 to its establishment as the most highly ranked journal in its field, is unparalleled. The total number of articles published, representing the foremost marine ecological research, is now well over 10 000. MEPS has seen a variety of developments in the 4 years since the publication of Vol. 300: • Yearly submissions have increased from about 900 to >1100, and the annual number of volumes published from 20 to 24. • The number of Contributing Editors (CEs) has increased from 23 to 49; the number of Review Editors, from 73 to 87. • The introduction of centralized manuscript handling via XPressTrack has increased efficiency, reduced the clerical workload of CEs, and helped the Editors-in-Chief to support the CEs’ work. • The Impact Factor has risen from 2.1 to 2.6. According to Eigenfactor.org, a non-profit project, MEPS is No. 1 by Eigenfactor, far ahead of all other journals, in the categories ‘Marine & Freshwater Biology’ and ‘Oceanography’. • Our Open Access (OA) policy and the introduction of ‘Feature Articles’ (FAs) have further enhanced global visibility of the journal and provided a tangible reward for our best authors. According to our Web statistics, FAs are downloaded 5 times more frequently, and OA articles are downloaded 2.5 times more often than regular articles. • Articles co-authored by CEs are now published with free OA.
