Journals in Earth and planetary sciences

Elsevier's Earth and Planetary Sciences collection brings together pioneering research on the complexities of our planet and beyond. Covering topics from Earth's structural dynamics and ecosystems to planetary exploration, these titles support advancements in geoscience, environmental science, and space studies, offering essential insights for researchers, professionals, and students.

  • Geomorphology

    • ISSN: 0169-555X
    Geomorphology publishes peer-reviewed works across the full spectrum of the discipline from fundamental theory and science to applied research of relevance to sustainable management of the environment.Our journal's scope includes geomorphic themes of:past, present and future environmental changes;tectonics and regional structure, interactions between tectonic and surface processes;volcanic processes and landforms;glacial, paraglacial and periglacial processes and landforms;fluvial processes and landforms;hillslope processes and evolution, mass movements;weathering... soil erosion and related landforms;aeolian processes and landforms;karst processes and forms;coastal and submarine processes and landforms, estuaries and lakes;biogeomorpholo... geomorphology;geomor... hazards;planetary geomorphology;theore... experimental and quantitative geomorphology;GIS, remote sensing and modeling methods and applications, sedimentary records and dating.
  • Chemical Geology

    • ISSN: 0009-2541
    Chemical Geology incorporates the journal previously known as Isotope Geoscience and is the journal affiliated with the European Association of Geochemistry. Chemical Geology publishes geochemical studies of fundamental and broad significance to enhance the understanding of the Earth and the solar system, focusing on chemical and mineralising processes in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary systems, low- and high-temperature mineral-fluid interactions, biogeochemistry, the environment and cosmochemistry.Paper... that are field, experimentally, or computationally based are appropriate if they are of broad international interest. The journal generally does not publish papers of mainly regional interest, or which are primarily focused on remediation, applied geochemistry, applied economic geology and pure geochronology.The Journal also welcomes innovative papers dealing with significant analytical advances that are of wide interest in the community and extend significantly beyond the scope of what would be included in the methods section of a standard research paper. This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 6 (Clean water and sanitation), SDG 13, (Climate Action) and SDG 14 (Life below water).
  • Aeolian Research

    • ISSN: 1875-9637
    Aeolian Research was originally created to serve as the International Journal on Wind Erosion Research, and now publishes articles on a wide range of aeolian topics such as: Fundamental aeolian processes, including sand and dust entrainment, transport, and deposition of sediment on Earth and other planetary bodies Modeling and field studies of aeolian processes at different scalesInstrumentatio... and measurement techniques in the field and laboratory Practical applications, including environmental impacts and erosion control Aeolian landforms, geomorphology, and paleoenvironments The Dust Cycle including studies of marine, paleo-, and glacial environmentsThe Dust Cycle and the role of dust in the Earth systemArchives of past aeolian processes including marine, lacustrine and ice archives as well as loessThe journal publishes a wide range of article types, including regular articles, review articles, letters, discussions, commentaries, perspectives, special issues, and replication studies. Contributions that support and advance the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals are especially welcome. Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

  • Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology

    • ISSN: 0886-7798
    Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology incorporating Trenchless Technology Research is an international journal which publishes authoritative articles encompassing original research and case studies on the development of tunnelling technology, the use of underground space, underground construction, and trenchless technology.The journal is committed to publishing papers on the interdisciplinary aspects of planning, creating, and regulating underground space, and covers a wide scope including:• Geo-investigation, geomechanics analysis, design and modelling, construction and monitoring, and maintenance and rehabilitation of tunnels and large underground and earth-sheltered structures.• Planning, development, and operation of underground space and underground space environment such as architecture, safety and comfort, and human-space interaction.• Installation and rehabilitation of underground pipelines, ducts, and cables using pipe jacking, microtunnelling, and other forms of trenchless technologies.
