Aims & Scope

Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment is a comprehensive journal addressing issues related to geology and its implications in engineering and environmental contexts. Official journal of the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment. Reports on problems resulting from the interaction between geology and human activities. Spans fields to discuss geomorphology, structure, stratigraphy, lithology and groundwater conditions of geological formations. Explores the mineralogical, physico-geomechanical, chemical and hydraulic properties of earth materials involved in construction and environmental change. Assesses the mechanical and hydrological behaviour of soil and rock masses.
