Specialty journal
Earth, Environment and Sustainability
Evidence-based research on Earth systems, environmental change, resources, hazards, and sustainability.
The journal connects observation and analysis of Earth systems with environmental understanding and scientifically grounded approaches to sustainability.
Intended readership: Earth, climate, environmental, ecological, geospatial, sustainability, hazard, and resource researchers.
It publishes Earth science, geology, geochemistry, geophysics, hydrology, atmospheric and climate science, environmental science, and environmental ecology, including processes, change, resources, hazards, biodiversity, and pollution.
Water, soil, waste, remediation, monitoring, remote sensing, GIS, environmental modelling, conservation, ecosystem services, circular economy, environmental management, climate adaptation and mitigation, and human–environment systems are welcome.
Policy-relevant work should remain transparent and evidence-led; advocacy or opinion without a scholarly research basis is outside scope.
Use these areas to judge whether the manuscript’s central contribution belongs in this journal.
Methods should suit the research question. These common approaches are illustrative, not artificial requirements.
Editors assess each manuscript as a whole. The following are generally outside scope unless a clear substantive contribution is established:
Availability is confirmed during submission and may vary. No universal length or item limits are implied.
A complete original study with methods, evidence, limitations, and discipline-appropriate conclusions.
A critical, structured synthesis that advances understanding of a defined topic.
A focused original contribution whose significance can be established concisely.
A validated method, workflow, instrument, computational approach, or analytical advance.
Evidence-informed analysis of a significant development or direction; unsupported opinion is unsuitable.
