The Ph.D. researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (Eawag) and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zürich (ETH Zürich) examines the issue of Smart Urban Water Systems.

She relied on my copyediting and line-editing services for her articles:

Manny, L. (2022) Socio-technical challenges towards smart urban water systems, 200 pdoi:10.3929/ethz-b-000578852Institutional Repository
Fischer, M.; Ingold, K.; Duygan, M.; Manny, L.; Pakizer, K. (2023) Actor networks in urban water governance, In: Bolognesi, T.; Silva Pinto, F.; Farrelly, M. (Eds.), Routledge handbook of urban water governance243-256doi:10.4324/9781003057574-21Institutional Repository

 

My copyediting approach included:

Checking for and correcting:

  • Errors in grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation.
  • Technical consistency in capitalization, font usage, hyphenation, and spelling consistency (UK-US spelling).

I also provided line-editing by:

  • Improving word choice.
  • Rewriting and restructuring (by adding remarks in the comment section of the word document).
  • Checking the readability of the article ensuring that the reader can grasp the writer’s argumentation.
  • Checking for redundancies, tone of voice, flow, and coherence.
