Applied Clay Science

• ISSN: 0169-1317
• 5 Year impact factor: 5.2
• Impact factor: 5.3

An International Journal on Physics, Chemistry, Geology and Technology of Clays and Clay MineralsApplied Clay Science is an international journal attracting high-quality, novel scientific papers on clays and clay minerals, including research papers, reviews, and technical notes. The journal covers typical subjects of Fundamental and Applied Clay Science such as:• Synthesis and purification • Structural, crystallographic and mineralogical properties of clays and clay minerals • Thermal properties of clays and clay minerals • Physico-chemical properties including i) surface and interface properties; ii) thermodynamic properties; iii) mechanical properties • Interaction with water, with polar and apolar molecules • Colloidal properties and rheology • Modelling and simulation, but with an experimental application. Purely theoretical simulation studies are only acceptable when they deal with scientific issues that cannot be solved experimentally • Genesis and deposits of clay minerals • Geology and geochemistry of clays • Modification of clays and clay minerals properties by thermal and physical treatments • Modification by chemical treatments with organic and inorganic molecules (organoclays, pillared clays) • Modification by biological microorganisms • Structural and textural modifications of clay minerals • Synthesis of other materials (such as zeolites, and geopolymers) starting from clay minerals. • Novel materials based on clay minerals such as clay polymer (bio)nanocomposites • Clays and clay minerals in formulations of pesticides and drugs and in animal food production • Environmental applications such as Radioactive Waste Disposal, Water Engineering, Depollution of heavy metals, Filtration • Fillers and coating (paint, rubber, plastics) • Drilling fluids and drilling muds in petroleum industry • Foundry moulding • Applications in soil chemistry and in agriculture • Applications of clay mineral in hydrocarbon and geothermal prospection • Geotechnical applications of clays and clay minerals • Applications in ceramics, construction, iron ore and steel industry, paper, catalysis, cosmetics • Related lamellar materials such as Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH), layered oxides, layered silicates, Cement Silicate Hydrates (CSH, CASH, NASH), serpentine, and mica.In all the applications mentioned above, the focus of the manuscript should be on the clay.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Evolving Earth

• ISSN: 2950-1172

Evolving Earth is a multi-disciplinary open access journal publishing novel geoscience research that addresses all aspects of Earth system science, the past and future evolution of our planet, and global change mitigation. The journal publishes papers that cut across the established boundaries of sciences and emphasise the inter-dependent facets of our evolving planet. We welcome submissions across four broad areas.The Earth System section addresses the science of how our planet works, and encompasses these topics amongst others: Deep Earth and Tectonic Processes; Atmospheric Science; Glaciology and Polar Science; Oceanographic Science; Terrestrial and Freshwater Systems; Ecosystems and Biogeochemical Cycles.The Earth History section focuses on the story of planetary evolution, from its origins 4.56 billion years ago to the present day, with an emphasis on the critical role of life, and covers these topics: Palaeontology, Evolution and the History of Life; Sedimentary Basins and Stratigraphy; Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, and Palaeoecology; Quaternary and Anthropocene Sciences; Human Evolution and Geoarchaeology; Earth Surface Processes and Geomorphology.The Earth Futures section is concerned with the science of global change including, but not limited to, the following topics: The Changing Nature of the Earth System; Climate Modelling and Feedbacks; Planetary Boundaries and Habitability; Extinction and Mitigation; Global Change Ecology and Remote Sensing of ChangeThe Earth and Humans section considers the science-based mitigation of global change in relation to its specific impacts on human society and infrastructure. Examples of fields relevant to this diverse area include: Food and Water Security; Geological Hazards and Risk; Sustainable Geoscience; Urban and Engineering Geoscience; Earth Resources and Energy; Critical Zone Science.Manuscripts may be submitted as either original research papers or as authoritative review articles, and we especially welcome proposals for special issues. Every effort should be made to present research outcomes in a way that is understandable for a broad international readership.
