Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ocean sediments provide an extraordinary record of Earth’s history, both recent and ancient. Given dramatic, historic climate changes, we need to more clearly understand what the Earth’s recent prehistoric past looked like, as a guide to our future. Paleomagnetism and rock magnetism have provided important dating, correlation, and proxy evidence in terms of these past changes. We solicit papers that use ocean-sediment magnetic methods to study the Earth’s recent (Quaternary) past.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process.
