Proposals should be concise (max 3 pages), provide Guest Editors' name(s), the study background and justification, the joint SI objectives, as well as the contributions' titles and author names already confirmed or likely being contributed to the SI (the number of contributions is not limited to upper or lower bounds). Abstracts of such contributions are strongly encouraged being annexed to the 3 pages.
