Earth History and Biodiversity

ISSN: 2950-4759

Earth History and Biodiversity is a full Open Access journal which publishes research results on the interplay between biodiversity and the evolution of the Earth's physical environment (atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere) with the aim of bridging the gap between geosciences and biology. Climate is a crucial driver of biological diversity, and its future development will lead to fundamental threats. But also other factors of the physical environment, including geophysics and earth surface dynamics, control or are eventually contingent on diversity in time and space. Understanding evolutionary patterns and processes, and the roots of modern biodiversity in dependence of long and short term environmental processes through the geological past will contribute to developing adequate mitigation and conservation strategies. The overarching aim of the journal is to publish original research papers, reports, review articles, perspectives, tutorial materials, and assays that cover the connections between geoenvironment and biodiversity. Topics may include but are not limited to: Past and present biodiversity patterns Impact of environmental changes on biodiversity Speciation, extinction and extirpation induced by geoenvironmental disruptions Routes and barriers of dispersal Ecological, palaeoecological and evolutionary patterns Ecosystem and biome destruction or resilience in different geoenvironments Modelling biodiversity geoenvironmental relationships Strategies of biodiversity conservation in different geoenvironments Educational material on the connections between geoenvironment and biodiversity

Earth-Science Reviews

ISSN: 0012-8252
5 Year impact factor: 13.6
Impact factor: 12.1

The following are examples of what the editors consider to demonstrate very well the kind of review article that ESR hopes to publish: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2013.12.005 Geophysical constraints on the link between cratonization and orogeny: Evidence from the Tibetan Plateau and the North China Craton http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2007.04.001Subduction kinematics and dynamic constraints http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2008.04.0053.5 billion years of glass bioalteration: Volcanic rocks as a basis for microbial life? http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2016.01.005 Resolving MISS conceptions and misconceptions: a geological approach to sedimentary surface textures generated by microbial and abiotic processes http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2015.05.001 Legacy effects of sediments in river corridors http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2014.12.004 Paleogeographic trends in Late Triassic reef ecology from northeastern Panthalassa http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2016.04.008 The occurrence, identification and environmental relevance of vivianite in waterlogged soils and aquatic sediments Covering a much wider field than the usual specialist journals, Earth Science Reviews publishes review articles dealing with all aspects of Earth Sciences, and is an important vehicle for allowing readers to see their particular interest related to the Earth Sciences as a whole. Our readership is more diverse than that of specialist journals: as well as research scientists, also students, government agencies involved in programme support and management and in environmental assessment and control, private industries concerned with planetary resources, and the independent consultant. The journal's vision includes ensuring accessibility for all of these groups. Every review article published will advance existing knowledge and highlight new directions being taken at the forefront of expanding subject areas by synthesis, evaluation and discussion of previously published literature. The value of such articles to the readership is increased with comment and opinion provided by the author from a specific context. Authors may further enhance their article with the addition of supplementary material such as videos, datasets and applications. Articles may be extensive, providing comprehensive coverage of a relatively broad or cross-disciplinary subject area, or they may be much shorter providing an in-depth overview of a very specific topic, and authors may choose to include a proportion of their own primary research data to support their arguments. From time to time, 'Invited Earth-Science Reviews' will be published about topics of exceptional interest. Other styles of 'review' article will be considered; these include critical reviews of methods used in the geosciences, case studies which illustrate and provide critical review of concepts of global significance, and articles that use previously published literature as a basis to develop aspects of industrial or social policy relevant to the earth sciences. Submissions that simply aggregate previous literature and do not build on current awareness, or those that are structured like a primary research paper, are unlikely to be accepted for publication. Authors of primary research articles are encouraged to submit their work to a subject-appropriate journal, rather than to Earth-Science Reviews. Earth Science Reviews offers authors the rare opportunity to explore a particular subject without any limitation on the number of words used. We encourage authors to adopt a writing style which balances conciseness with the need to do justice to their chosen subject. Therefore, authors of review articles in excess of around 20,000 words should first discuss their idea by email with one of the journal editors, copied to Tim Horscroft, the Review Papers Coordinator, ([email protected]), to ensure the project's suitability for potential publication. This journal welcomes review-type papers within its scope that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 13, (Climate Action) SDG 14 (Life below water) and SDG 15 (Life on land)

Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology

ISSN: 1642-3593
5 Year impact factor: 3
Impact factor: 2.6

The journal of the European Regional Centre for Ecohydrology of the Polish Academy of Sciences Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology is an international journal that aims to advance ecohydrology as the study of the interplay between ecological and hydrological processes from molecular to river basin scales, and to promote its implementation as an integrative management tool to harmonize societal needs with biosphere potential. An essential component of ecohydrology is a rigorous understanding of hydrobiology, from ecosystem properties, dynamics and functions to modelling of abiotic and biotic interactions in relation to their hydrological determinants at the basin scale. The journal will publish high-quality science aimed at increasing the understanding of water–biota interplay and exploring how this knowledge can be used to regulate hydrological and biogeochemical processes to enhance the carrying capacity, especially of anthropogenically modified ecosystems. Research addressing one or several of the following issues will be of prime interest to the journal if it: Leads to new insights into the interactions of water, nutrient and pollutant cycles with biotic components of ecosystems; Employs this understanding for developing ecosystem biotechnologies and system solutions; Identifies possibilities to integrate engineering infrastructure with ecohydrological biotechnologies into system solutions at the catchment scale; Translates transdisciplinary knowledge into decision-support tools; Targets biodiversity, quality and quantity of water resources, ecosystem processes and functioning (including environmental flows), ecosystem services and/or ecosystem resilience as necessary components for enhanced carrying capacity; Is policy-oriented and, within the scope of the journal, addresses the priorities and objectives of international initiatives such as the Millennium Development Goals and UNESCO's International Hydrological Programme. This peer-reviewed journal publishes original research articles, reviews and short communications. The Editors of Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology welcome proposals for special issues on topics that fall within the scope of the journal.

Ecological Engineering

ISSN: 0925-8574
5 Year impact factor: 4.3
Impact factor: 3.8

The Journal of Ecosystem Restoration Ecological engineering has been defined as the design of ecosystems for the mutual benefit of humans and nature. The journal is for those involved in designing, monitoring, or restoring ecosystems, and serves as a bridge between the fields of ecology and engineering Specific topics covered in the journal include: habitat reconstruction; ecotechnology; synthetic ecology; bioengineering; restoration ecology; ecology conservation; ecosystem rehabilitation; stream and river restoration; reclamation ecology; non-renewable resource conservation. Descriptions of specific applications of ecological engineering are acceptable only when situated within context of adding novelty to current research and emphasizing ecosystem restoration. We do not accept purely descriptive reports on ecosystem structures (such as vegetation surveys), purely physical assessment of materials that can be used for ecological restoration, small-model studies carried out in the laboratory or greenhouse with artificial (waste)water or crop studies, or case studies on conventional wastewater treatment and eutrophication that do not offer an ecosystem restoration approach within the paper. The journal welcomes full papers, short communications, reviews, and letters to the editor. We are pleased to publish papers from multidisciplinary approaches that are pertinent to a wide range of scholars, managers, practitioners, and policymakers across ecological sciences. All papers will be subject to peer review and they will be dealt with as speedily as is compatible with a high standard of presentation.
