Continental Shelf Research
Continental Shelf Research publishes articles dealing with the biological, chemical, geological and physical oceanography of the shallow marine environment, from coastal and estuarine waters out to the shelf break. The continental shelf is a critical environment within the land-ocean continuum, and many processes, functions and problems in the continental shelf are driven by terrestrial inputs transported through the rivers and estuaries to the coastal and continental shelf areas. Manuscripts that deal with these topics must make a clear link to the continental shelf. Examples of research areas include: Physical sedimentology and geomorphologyGeochem... of the coastal ocean (inorganic and organic)Marine environment and anthropogenic effectsInteraction of physical dynamics with natural and manmade shoreline featuresBenthic, phytoplankton and zooplankton ecologyCoastal water and sediment quality, and ecosystem healthBenthic-pelagi... coupling (physical and biogeochemical)Inter... between physical dynamics (waves, currents, mixing, etc.) and biogeochemical cyclesEstuarine, coastal and shelf sea modelling and process studiesEmphasis is placed on interdisciplinary process-oriented contributions, and encouragement is given to the publication of the results of innovative experimental studies with the potential for upscaling and a broad contribution. Regional descriptions and data summaries are discouraged.Continen... Shelf Research publishes research papers, occasional review articles and short communications and technical notes (instruments and methods).Continental Shelf Research also publishes Special Issues dedicated to results of large interdisciplinary studies or topical issues on specific subjects. Contact one of our Editors for more information on Special Issue proposals.Note to Authors: When considering submission of a manuscript to CSR, bear in mind that recent analyses show that published papers are downloaded by scientists from over 90 countries world-wide. This level of usage emphasizes the need for authors to present their research results in a broad context, to be of interest to this international community. Likewise, when suggesting the four reviewers for a manuscript, an international perspective of individual scientists (not necessarily affiliated with CSR) should be considered.

Quaternary International
Quaternary International is an international, peer-reviewed journal that embraces all aspects related to Quaternary Science. It is the official journal of the International Union for Quaternary Research (INQUA) and aims to publish high-quality and impactful articles covering significant advances across all disciplines related to Quaternary research.The Journal's mission is to promote innovative research which appeals to the broad audience of the global Quaternary community and contributes to addressing broad international scientific questions. The journal accepts submissions for Research Papers, Review Articles, Short Communications and welcomes Special Issue proposals.Submission... related (but not limited) to the following research topics are welcome:Past climate change: palaeo-data and/or model-based reconstructions towards enhanced understanding of Quaternary climatic variability and abrupt events. Humans and biosphere: the evolution and diversity of humans and their ecological environment during the Quaternary alongside the dynamic relationship between them.Terrestrial and marine stratigraphy and geochronology: the study of the Quaternary Period through a stratigraphical approach and the application of geochronological methods that support establishment of timeframes and (cross-continental) correlations.Surface and tectonics processes: investigations of the Quaternary records of geohazards and their relationships with environment and humans. Applications of novel analytical tools: demonstration of physics-, chemistry-, biology- or computer science-based innovative methods and techniques applied to Quaternary science. Submissions that include innovative cross-disciplinary research combining palaeoecology, archaeology, anthropology, geology and related cultural processes are also encouraged.Review Articles that summarize the state-of-the-art in various fields or report cross-disciplinary advances in Quaternary science are welcome and warmly received.Quaternary International also publishes Special Issues organised by leading scientists and Early Career Researchers. Special Issues address major scientific questions in contemporary Quaternary research, including those related to international research projects or special events such as workshops, symposiums etc. Leaders of INQUA funded projects and INQUA Fellowship holders are strongly encouraged to propose Special Issues on their research topics.Manuscripts that present local studies, case-studies and new data are welcome if they provide evidence for broad scientific discussion or highlights correlations in the framework of a multi-regional or global Quaternary significance.Manuscr... that focus on pre-Quaternary data and events or on recent changes in climate, environment, and agriculture (within the last 20 years) will be considered for publication only if the authors indicate and clearly address the relationships with and contributions to Quaternary research.

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology is an international journal for the publication of original articles and reviews on the inter-relationship between meteorology, agriculture, forestry, and natural ecosystems. Emphasis is on basic and applied scientific research relevant to practical problems in the field of plant and soil sciences, ecology and biogeochemistry as affected by weather as well as climate variability and change. Theoretical models should be tested against experimental data. Articles must appeal to an international audience. Special issues devoted to single topics are also published.Typical topics include canopy micrometeorology (e.g. canopy radiation transfer, turbulence near the ground, evapotranspiration, energy balance, fluxes of trace gases), micrometeorological instrumentation (e.g., sensors for trace gases, flux measurement instruments, radiation measurement techniques), aerobiology (e.g. the dispersion of pollen, spores, insects and pesticides), biometeorology (e.g. the effect of weather and climate on plant distribution, crop yield, water-use efficiency, and plant phenology), forest-fire/weather interactions, and feedbacks from vegetation to weather and the climate system.Keyword index available on https://www.elsevier...

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.
