/ Transactions - Earth & Environmental Sciences |
Transactions is a general
earth sciences journal publishing peer-reviewed research
papers, reviews and short communications of international
standard on all fields of the earth sciences, such as:
petrology, economic geology, geophysics, geochemistry,
mineralogy, palaeontology, tectonics and structural
geology, sedimentology, volcanology, geomorphology,
Quaternary studies, palaeoclimatology, hydrogeology,
soil science, oceanography, environmental geology, stratigraphy
and related planetary sciences. The Editors are keen
to encourage interdisciplinary papers.
The Royal Society of Edinburgh is committed to the widespread
dissemination of scientific knowledge. Through the Earth
and Environmental Science Transactions of the Royal
Society of Edinburgh, the Society continues to
encourage and support the international Earth Sciences
community by:
- publishing a journal of international
standing and authorship;
- publishing substantial papers
on all scientific aspects of the earth and its environments;
- publishing without page charges;
- reproducing photographs and artwork
to the highest standard, where appropriate at a size
larger than is customary; and
- aiming to have papers reviewed
within three months of submission, by at least two
referees of international standing; and usually publishing
within six months of acceptance of revised papers.
