Aims & Scope

As a scientific reference tool in all fields of earth sciences, BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin publishes original articles of general interest, in Open Access. The BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin is the scientific journal of the Société Géologique de France, an association under the 1901 law whose objective is to promote Earth Sciences. The BSGF covers all Earth Sciences disciplines and themes addressing the internal envelopes of the solid Earth (core, mantle, crust) and interactions with the hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere in the critical zone. Published works may deal with the nature, history and dynamics of the Earth, the evolution of climate and life, subsoil resources, natural risks and the environment. The BSGF publishes original articles and review articles, without size limits, which can be grouped into special thematic or regional volumes led by guest editors.
