There are 28 individuals listed in the SciAm pressroom. Of these, 17 are women, 10 are men, and 1 is a "they".

Ctl-F 'physics' yields 3 with physics degrees, of whom 1 has a PhD.

Ctl-F 'Ph.D.' yields a whole 3 hits.

And the most qualified is a male who co-authored a book with Tim Berners-Lee and has a Physics degree. He's NOT the editor in chief, because he's a man, though. Almost all the rest are journalists with interest in the climate. Only a handful had any remotely scientific degree, or a short stint in Oceanography or Wetlands Management.

"Chainsaw Haircut", LOL. In Fairness, this is the graphics person so probably not making (hopefully) editorial decisions.
