Journal of Earth, Geological and Planetary Science is a journal in the EJSIR Publisher programme, focused on Earth, Geological and Planetary Science. Its scope is organized into academic sections covering Geology, Geophysics, Geomorphology, Tectonics, Mineral & Resource Geoscience, Natural Hazards, Planetary Geology, Sedimentology, Geochemistry and Computational Geoscience. This structure helps authors assess disciplinary fit and gives readers a clear route through the journal’s subject coverage. The journal welcomes original research article, review article, systematic review, short communication and other contributions described in its author guidance when they fit the scope. Research may use field sampling, laboratory measurements, remote sensing, GIS, spatial statistics, Earth-system models or longitudinal environmental data. Authors should document site selection, instruments, resolution, calibration, data processing and model assumptions, and distinguish observed results from projections or interpretations. Authors should engage relevant scholarship, explain the contribution and report limitations needed for critical assessment. Editorial assessment considers journal fit, methodological or interpretive quality, research integrity and clarity. The stated review model is double-anonymous peer review, normally with at least two independent reviewers. Publisher policies on ethics, access, authorship, conflicts, data and corrections apply alongside this journal’s scope. Submission information is provided on this site; manuscripts can be submitted only after the journal’s submission route opens.
