Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles
This journal focuses on the geological study of continental rift basins, particularly the Albertine Rift in East Africa, and sedimentary basins in the Arctic region. Research includes detailed analysis of tectonic structures, sedimentary depositional environments (fluvial, lacustrine, deltaic), stratigraphic frameworks, and the influence of climatic cyclicity on basin evolution. The scope also encompasses hydrocarbon exploration within these basins and the integration of geophysical and geological data acquisition methods.
