Journal of Geomorphology is a full open access peer-reviewed international journal presenting original contributions of high scientific standard from all fields of geomorphology, encompassing basic research and applied studies. Journal of Geomorphology (J.Geomorph.) invites the submission of original papers from the entire field of geomorphological research, both applied and theoretical. Authors are encouraged to submit their papers to the editor-in-chief. Please peruse the instructions to authors (PDF) before submitting your paper.

Newsletters in Stratigraphy is an international, peer-reviewed journal, publishing articles of international interest dealing with stratigraphical matters for example, descriptions of new stratotypes, redefinitions of existing stratotypes, new approaches to the subdivision of stratigraphic units and the discussion of problems associated with particular boundaries. Papers adding comment and/or critique to to original papers published in this journal or elsewhere are accepted. Newsletters on stratigraphy also publishes summaries of original papers that are not accessible in the literature, this also applies to papers in which the stratigraphic aspect is only a byproduct. Reviews of current commission or conference discussions, recommendations or resolutions are invited, as are papers of other purport, if they are of relevance to stratigraphic problems. Newsletters on Stratigraphy invites the submission of such papers and there are no page charges for the publication of regular papers.

Nova Hedwigia is an international journal publishing original, peerreviewed papers on current issues of taxonomy, morphology, ultrastructure and ecology of all groups of cryptogamic plants (including cyanophytes/cyanobacteria and fungi). The half-tone plates in Nova Hedwigia are known for their high quality, which makes them especially suitable for the reproduction of photomicrographs and scanning and transmission electron micrographs.

Phytocoenologia publishes original papers in the fields of vegetation ecology. The journal covers all aspects of phytosociology in a comprehensive sense, i.e. including interactions between plant (and animal) organisms (coenological geobotany), the history and origin of phytocoenoses, vegetation dynamics, floristic and structural analysis of the plant cover (classification and ordination), fundamental environmental studies of plant ecosystems (synecology), pattern analyses from the ecosystem to the landscape level, and aspects of reproduction, dispersal and population biology in plant communities. The journal is open to methodological, theoretical, experimental and applied approaches. Phytocoenologia was founded in 1973 by R. Tüxen,The contributions should appeal to an international readership. Papers whose content is restricted to purely syntaxonomical and nomenclatural aspects or to local vegetation studies will not be accepted. Supraregional, synoptic views and comparative studies of vegetation types are welcome.Thematic issues devoted to current topics and special volumes (e.g., with selected contributions of I.A.V.S. and F.I.P.-Symposia) will also be considered for publication. .
