Journals in Climatology

  • Atmospheric Research

    • ISSN: 0169-8095
    Clouds - Precipitation - Aerosols - Radiation - Climatology, Weather ModificationThe journal publishes scientific papers (research papers, review articles, letters and notes) dealing with the part of the atmosphere where meteorological events occur. Attention is given to all processes extending from the earth surface to the tropopause, but special emphasis continues to be devoted to the physics of clouds, mesoscale meteorology and air pollution, i.e. atmospheric aerosols; microphysical processes; cloud dynamics and thermodynamics; numerical simulation, climatology, climate change and weather modification.This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy) and SDG 13 (Climate Action).
  • Quaternary Science Reviews

    • ISSN: 0277-3791
    The International Journal of Earth, Climate and Life InteractionsQuaterna... Science Reviews caters for all aspects of Quaternary science, and includes, for example, geology, geomorphology, geography, archaeology, soil science, palaeobotany, palaeontology, palaeoclimatology and the full range of applicable dating methods. The dividing line between what constitutes the review paper and one which contains new original data is not easy to establish, so QSR also publishes papers with new data especially if these perform a review function. All the Quaternary sciences are changing rapidly and subject to re-evaluation as the pace of discovery quickens; thus the diverse but comprehensive role of Quaternary Science Reviews keeps readers abreast of the wider issues relating to new developments in the field. Quaternary Science Reviews includes Special Issues on topical subjects arising from recent scientific meetings, in response to significant changes in Quaternary subject matter, or to acknowledge the achievements of some outstanding Quaternary Scientist.Authors are also welcome to submit to the journal's open access companion title, Quaternary Science Advances.This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals.
  • Urban Climate

    • ISSN: 2212-0955
    Urban climate serves the scientific and decision-making communities with the publication of research on theory, science, and applications relevant to identifying and describing, explaining and predicting urban climatic conditions and change. The journal considers research in the fields of meteorology, geography, demography, social science, economics, engineering, environmental science and political, as it relates to climate smart, sustainable and resilient cities. Targeted towards both disciplinary and interdisciplinary audiences, this journal publishes original research papers, comprehensive review articles, book reviews, and short communications on topics including, but not limited to, the following:Urban weather and climate:The study of the physics, dynamics, and chemistry of the interactions of the Earth’s atmosphere and the urban built environment, and how they affect the urban environment including human populations. Urban canopy and boundary layerUrban heat island effectsCoastal floodingUrban energy budgetImpact of urban meteorology, materials, and form on urban energy useUrban hydrologic cycleUrban-coastal interactionsFeedback... between air quality, local climate and global climate changeUrban impact on precipitationUrban microclimate and weather eventsUrban environmental pollution:The study of the causes, effects and dynamics of urban pollution as they relate to the urban built environment and impacts on and from the urban climate.

Urban vulnerability to climate hazards and climate changeUrban infrastructure system adaptation Urban adaptation policies, strategies & governance Urban mitigation to climate change: The study of urban technologies, behaviors and social and natural processes that help to reduce the flow of heat-trapping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere from cities. Urban GHG sources and drivers of climate changeUrban technologies for reducing climate changeUrban mitigation policies, strategies & governance Urban economic and social dynamics and climate:Uses of the tools of social science and economics to study urban activities and their vulnerabilities and contributions to adaptation to urban climate and their contributions to impacts on urban climate.
