Biogeosciences
Climate and Environment
The Climate and Environment section of Geosciences publishes cutting-edge research on the dynamics, variability, and long-term changes of the Earth's climate system. This section encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, including past, present, and future changes in climate,...
Cryosphere
Geochemistry
Geochemistry is the application of the science of chemistry to understanding the Earth and the universe in which it exists. With its roots dating back centuries to rudimentary investigations of rocks, minerals, and metals, geochemistry has evolved to become a modern science. Swiss chemist Christi...
Geoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism
The amount of research associated with Geoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism has increased dramatically in recent years. The current challenges faced by humanity with respect to global changes has highlighted the need to better understand our geoheritage and its place in the global nest of science...
Geomechanics
Geomechanics involves the study of the mechanics of soil and rock, and, thus, the two main disciplines of geomechanics include soil mechanics and rock mechanics. Soil mechanics deals with the behavior of soil from small to large scales, whereas rock mechanics deals with issues related to rock mas...
Geophysics
The Geophysics section of Geosciences publishes original and top-quality research papers, notes, comments, and reviews on the solid earth, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and space. Geophysics section includes all aspects of geophysics and promotes the comprehension of the structure, physical p...
Hydrogeology
Hydrogeology looks at how water interacts with geological systems. By studying water flow, it is possible to quantify the water stored in underground aquifers and surface systems and identify pathways of flow and recharge. Hydrogeology assesses the quality and chemical composition of the surface ...
Natural Hazards
This section of “Geosciences” is dedicated to the publication of pure, experimental, or applied research that aims to advance methodologies, technologies, expertise, and capabilities to detect, characterize, monitor, and model natural hazards and assess their associated risks.
Sedimentology, Stratigraphy and Palaeontology
This section of Geosciences aims to publish research papers that advance the knowledge of the sedimentary processes and the development of depositional systems at all temporal and spatial scales. It is also devoted to highlighting the influence of life on Earth’s history as documen...
Structural Geology and Tectonics
The Structural Geology and Tectonics Section publishes original and top-quality research papers as well as review papers from all fields of the discipline, including field, laboratory, geochronological, petro-structural, geophysical, remote-sensing and modeli...
