Journal Guide

Chemie der Erde, one of the oldest journals for geochemistry-related topics, promotes broad interdisciplinary discussion on chemical problems in the geosciences, geoecology and environmental sciences. Numerous contributions by young authors have allowed the journal to retain its "young" scientific profile. Publications addressing interdisciplinary questions are particularly encouraged. The journal, through very personalized consultation and its worldwide distribution, offers entry into the world of international scientific communication. The international journal "Chemie der Erde" publishes original papers, brief news items and surveys of selected topics.

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems (G3) publishes research papers on the chemistry, physics, and biology of Earth and planetary processes. Articles should be of broad interest and interdisciplinary approaches are encouraged, but not required. G3 seeks original scientific contributions pertaining to understanding the Earth as a system, including observational, experimental, and theoretical investigations of the solid Earth, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere at all spatial and temporal scales.Areas of interest for this peer-reviewed journal include, but are not limited to:The physics and chemistry of the Earth, including its structure, composition, physical properties, dynamics, and evolutionPrinciples and applications of geochemical proxies to studies of Earth historyThe physical properties, composition, and temporal evolution of the Earth's major reservoirs and the coupling between themThe dynamics of geochemical and biogeochemical cycles at all spatial and temporal scalesPhysical and cosmochemical constraints on the composition, origin, and evolution of the Earth and other terrestrial planetsThe chemistry and physics of solar system materials that are relevant to the formation, evolution, and current state of the Earth and the planetsAdvances in modeling, observation, and experimentation that are of widespread interest in the geosciencesG3 is an online only journal and strives to be at the cutting edge of electronic publishing by encouraging the innovative use of data analysis and visualization formats. The journal also encourages authors to work with the editors and AGU to develop new and innovative means of electronic communication.

Its aims to promote discussion between the various disciplines that work on the dynamics of the lithosphere and hydrosphere.There are no constraints over themes provided the main thrust of the paper relates to Earth's internal and external geodynamics. In addition Special Issues devoted to a single topic, and edited by an authority in that field, are also published.

The journal Geofizika succeeds the series Papers, which has been published since 1923 at the Geophysical Institute in Zagreb. Geofizika publishes contributions dealing with physics of the atmosphere, the sea and the Earth's interior. As of 2006 (Vol. 23) the journal is published semiannually. Older volumes were issued annually.The journal is indexed in:Compendex, EMBASE, GeoAbstracts, Geobase, GeoRef, Meteorological and Geoastrophysical Abstracts, Referativnyj Žurnal, Scopus, Science Citation Index Expanded, Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.

Established in 1961, the journal Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (Geomagnetizm i aeronomiya) covers the fields of interplanetary space; geoeffective solar events; the magnetosphere; the ionosphere; the upper and middle atmosphere; the action of solar variability and activity on atmospheric parameters and climate; the main magnetic field and its secular variations, excursion, and inversion; and other related topics.

GJI aims to publish all papers in a timely fashion. Authors who submit a paper are expected to be able to certify that the paper is original work, has not been published before and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. The Journal aims to promote the understanding of the Earth's internal structure, physical properties, processes and evolution. Contributions presenting new data, methods and interpretations, of interest to a broad readership, are welcome in the following subjects:

Geophysical Prospecting publishes the best in primary research on the science of geophysics as it applies to the exploration, evaluation and extraction of earth resources. Drawing heavily on contributions from researchers in the oil and mineral exploration industries, the journal has a very practical slant. Although the journal provides a valuable forum for communication among workers in these fields, it is also ideally suited to researchers in academic geophysics.

About Geophysical Research Letters (GRL)GRL is a Letters journal; limiting manuscript size expedites the review and publication process. GRL also publishes a limited number of frontier articles, by invitation from Editors. GRL's mission is to disseminate concisely-written, high-impact research reports on major scientific advances in AGU disciplines [PDF]. With this goal, the Editorial Board evaluates manuscripts submitted to GRL according to the following criteria: High impact innovative results with broad geophysical implications at the forefront of one or several AGU disciplines. Results with immediate impact on the research of others and requiring rapid publication. Instrument or methods manuscript introducing an innovative technique that makes new science advance possible, with immediate applications to AGU disciplines.GRL has been in publication since 1974. The Editors are adapting GRL to the evolving needs of the Earth science community. GRL Editors are topical: the subject of the paper determines which Editor handles the review and decision process. For more information, please read these EOS Editorials.Covers (1997–present) and mast heads (inside front cover of print journal) (2002–present) are available.

The Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics is an international journal concerned with the inter-disciplinary science of the Sun-Earth connection, defined very broadly. The journal referees and publishes original research papers, using rigorous standards of review, and focusing on the following:

• The results of experiments and their interpretations, and results of theoretical or modelling studies;
• Papers dealing with remote sensing carried out from the ground or space and with in situ studies made from rockets or from satellites orbiting the Earth;

and,

• Plans for future research, often carried out within programs of international scope.

The Journal also encourages papers involving:

• Large scale collaborations, especially those with an international perspective;
• Rapid communications;
• Papers dealing with novel techniques or methodologies;
• Commissioned review papers on topical subjects and tutorial reviews;

and,

• Special issues arising from chosen scientific symposia or workshops.

The journal covers the physical processes operating in the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, the Sun, interplanetary medium, and heliosphere. Phenomena occurring in other "spheres", solar influences on climate, and supporting laboratory measurements are also considered. The journal deals especially with the coupling between the different regions.

Solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and other energetic events on the Sun create interesting and important perturbations in the near-Earth space environment. The physics of this subject, now termed "space weather", is central to the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics and the journal welcomes papers that lead in the direction of a predictive understanding of the coupled system. Regarding the upper atmosphere, the subjects of aeronomy, geomagnetism and geoelectricity, auroral phenomena, radio wave propagation, and plasma instabilities, are examples within the broad field of solar-terrestrial physics which emphasise the energy exchange between the solar wind, the magnetospheric and ionospheric plasmas, and the neutral gas. In the lower atmosphere, topics covered range from mesoscale to global scale dynamics, to atmospheric electricity, lightning and its effects, and to anthropogenic changes. Helpful, novel schematic diagrams are encouraged. Short animations and ancillary data sets can also be accommodated. Prospective authors should review the Instructions to Authors at the back of each issue.
