Marine Chemistry publishes original empirical research, innovative methods and technologies, and novel modeling approaches in the field of marine chemistry and biogeochemistry. Preference will be given to hypothesis-driven studies that offer thought-provoking insights into the natural and human-induced controls and changes in ocean chemistry and biogeochemistry. Spatial scales range from the reach of tide to the open ocean and from molecules to ecosystems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, nutrient dynamics, metal cycling, carbon cycling, trace elements, radionuclides, ocean acidification, carbon sequestration (e.g., carbon dioxide removal and nature-based climate change solutions), deep-sea vent chemistry/biogeochemistry, isotope chemistry/biogeochemistry, land-ocean-atmosphere interactions, air-sea exchange, weathering processes, biogeochemical behavior of pollutants (e.g., toxic metals and plastics), biogeochemical fluxes, applications of ‘omics techniques that provide insight into biogeochemistry, and new applications of artificial intelligence/machine learning in modelling approaches. Temporal scales span from in-situ measurements and time-series observations to reconstructions of recent environmental changes based on sedimentary records.
Marine Chemistry publishes the following article types:
Research - provides novel original data on a research topic in Marine Chemistry/Biogeochemistry. These articles should strive to be transformative and broad-reaching in their scope. Core articles with a typical length of 6,000 words and a maximum of 10,000 words.
Reviews - provides an extensive literature-based perspective on a topic in marine chemistry/biogeochemistry. These article typically do not contain original data, if they are used to develop a broader scope of synthesis. Comprehensive surveys between 8,000 and 20,000 words, addressing topics that cross traditional boundaries.
Short Communications - shorter versions of Research Articles that provide new data on new techniques but also can present exciting new results that the authors believe stands alone at an early stage in development. Concise research papers typically range from 3,000 to 5,000 words, including up to three figures or tables.
Perspective - provides a unique viewpoint on an important research area in Marine Chemistry/Biogeochemistry. These articles can be on past, current, and/or future trends, but differ from a Review Article in that they include an objective personal view on how this research has changed or perhaps should change. The Editors solicit perspective articles, but unsolicited contributions are also welcome. Discussions of subjective positions or new concepts in less than 2,000 words.
