The time frame shouldn't present a problem. It will be useful paper to review as I'm involved in the relevant chapter of the IPCC's WGI report.

Peterson and Timothy W. Owen. This paper has been submitted electronically . If you accept this review, we will email you a URL and the unique ID number for this paper, which you will use to download the PDF file. This new method has been instituted in the interest of a faster turn around. Would you please let me know whether or not you will be able to do this review? If you accept, we ask that you complete your review within approximately one month from receipt of the paper. E-mail copies of reviews are encouraged, and even requested. Please send your email review to me at this email address. Also, if you accept, please send me your complete address including telephone and fax numbers for my files. Thanks so much. NOTE: We ask that if you accept this review that you do your best to work within the accepted time frame. Unfortunately, the Journal has had too many reviewers begin the review process and then take months to return the review. This is not fair to the authors nor the other reviewers. PLEASE, if you cannot work within the agreed time, don't accept the review or ask for an extension of the four-week review period at the start. If you are unable to do this review, suggestions of other possible reviewers (and their e-mail addresses if possible) for this paper would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
