Cold Regions Science and Technology
Cold Regions Science and Technology is an international journal dealing with the science and technical problems of cold environments in both the polar regions and more temperate locations. It includes fundamental aspects of cryospheric sciences which have applications for cold regions problems as well as engineering topics which relate to the cryosphere.Emphasis is given to applied science with broad coverage of the physical and mechanical aspects of ice (including glaciers and sea ice), snow and snow avalanches, ice-water systems, ice-bonded soils and permafrost.Relevant aspects of Earth science, materials science, offshore and river ice engineering are also of primary interest. These include icing of ships and structures as well as trafficability in cold environments. Technological advances for cold regions in research, development, and engineering practice are relevant to the journal. Theoretical papers must include a detailed discussion of the potential application of the theory to address cold regions problems. The journal serves a wide range of specialists, providing a medium for interdisciplinary communication and a convenient source of reference.Please see below the areas of research that the Editor in Chief and Associate Editors lead on, with support from members of the Editorial Board.Sea ice and arctic marine technology - Prof. Jukka TuhkuriSnow and snow avalanche - Dr. Nicolas Eckert & Dr. Betty SovillaFrozen soil, frozen rocks and permafrost - Prof. Jilin Qi & Prof. Mingyi ZhangRiver ice - Prof. Mark LoewenAtmospheric icing - Dr. Krzysztof Szilder- ISSN: 0165-232X
Global and Planetary Change
Global and Planetary Change publishes high-quality studies addressing all aspects of Earth System Science. The objective of the journal is to develop a multi-disciplinary understanding of planetary change and to improve knowledge of processes relevant at a global-scale. As such, the journal focuses equally on the geological and historical past as well as present-day and future scenarios based on observational records, experimental studies, and/or modelling. Regional or process-oriented studies are welcome provided that they are useful for understanding aspects of the Earth System.Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, studies of the dynamic Deep Earth and lithosphere to (near-)surface processes; changes in the dynamics and composition of the atmosphere, hydrosphere and cryosphere; climate change, the carbon cycle, and sea level fluctuations; global ecology, biogeography, and extinction; planetary boundaries and ecosystem resilience/threshold... and global change impacts on food security, water resources, and urban sustainability.Key criteria for the consideration of manuscripts include (a) their relevance for the global scientific community and/or (b) their wider implications for global-scale problems, preferably combined with (c) having a significance beyond a single discipline. Manuscripts may be submitted as either original research papers or as authoritative review articles. Every effort should be made to present research outcomes in a way that is understandable for a broad international readership.Please ensure your submission fulfils the following checklist of requirements to maximise the likelihood of consideration:A title and abstract that emphases its relevance to global-scale process and/or eventsA list of at least 5 potential reviewers that includes scientists from outside your network selected from across the global communityA short cover letter that concisely explains the wider global implications of your work- ISSN: 0921-8181
Atmospheric Research
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).- ISSN: 0169-8095
Urban Climate
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.

Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography
Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography publishes topical issues from the many international and interdisciplinary projects which are undertaken in oceanography. Besides these special issues from projects, the journal publishes collections of papers presented at conferences. The special issues regularly have electronic annexes of non-text material (numerical data, images, images, video, etc.) which are published with the special issues in ScienceDirect. Deep-Sea Research Part II was split off as a separate journal devoted to topical issues in 1993. Its companion journal Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, publishes the regular research papers in this area.AUTHORS PLEASE NOTE: the Editors cannot accept submissions that are not linked to a thematic issue. Please do not submit unsolicited papers. For information on how to submit a publication proposal for a special/thematic issue, you are cordially invited to contact the Chief Editors, Kenneth Drinkwater or Javier Aristegui.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support Center- ISSN: 0967-0645
