Scope
ES
3 is dedicated to the publication of timely and topical research of high importance across the breadth of the geosciences.
The journal has a special focus on cross-disciplinary research that showcases the relevance of geoscience to sustainability in society. The journal welcomes contributions, which explores challenges such as:
- Climate change – past, present and future
- Energy transition, decarbonisation and critical materials
- Hazards and risk – prediction, mitigation and reduction
- Urban development and land-use dynamics
- Habitable planet – terrestrial and extra-terrestrial life
- Holocene-Anthropocene interface
- Big data, data science and mathematical modelling
- Sustainable and responsible natural resource management
- Geohealth – the intersection of geoscience and health
- Earth systems science – natural and social science interaction
- Monitoring change – advances in technology and instrumentation
- Geoscience communication and ethics
The journal is also concerned with broad research from across the geosciences. Subjects include but are not limited to:
- Biogeoscience
- Energy, exploration and resource geoscience
- Engineering geology, hydrogeology and environmental geoscience
- Geochemistry, geochronology and isotope geology
- Quaternary geology, geomorphology and landscape evolution
- Geophysics (geodynamics, seismology and geomagnetism)
- Marine geoscience and paleoceanography
- Metamorphic and igneous geology
- Paleobiology and paleoenvironments
- Planetary geoscience
- Sedimentology and stratigraphy
- Structural geology and tectonics
- Volcanology
