Aims & Scope

ESRJ publishes the results from technical and scientific research on various disciplines of Earth Sciences and its interactions with several engineering applications. Works will be considered only if not previously published anywhere else. Manuscripts must contain information derived from scientific research projects or technical developments. The ideas expressed by publishing in ESRJ are the sole responsibility of the authors. We gladly consider manuscripts in the following subject areas: Geophysics: Seismology, Seismic Prospecting, Gravimetric, Magnetic, and Electrical methods. Geology: Volcanology, Tectonics, Neotectonics, Geomorphology, Geochemistry, Geothermal Energy, Glaciology, Ore Geology, Environmental Geology, Geological Hazards. Geodesy: Geodynamics, GPS measurements applied to geological and geophysical problems. Basic Sciences and Computer Science applied to Geology and Geophysics. Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences. Oceanography. Planetary Sciences. Engineering: Earthquake Engineering and Seismology Engineering, Geological Engineering, Geotechnics.
