Austrian Journal of Earth Sciences

AUSTRIAN JOURNAL OF EARTH SCIENCES is the official journal of the Austrian Geological (ÖGG), Mineralogical (ÖMG), Palaeontological (ÖPG) and Hydrogeological (ÖVH) Societies, hosted by a country that is famous for its spectacular mountains, sedimentary basins and classical fossil sites that were and are the birthplace for many geoscientific concepts in modern Earth science. Further information on the journal may also be obtained from the local website at: www.ajes.at

AUSTRIAN JOURNAL OF EARTH SCIENCE focuses on all aspects relevant to the geosciences of the Alpine realm including the Bohemian Massif, the surrounding sedimentary basins and related regions in Central Europe, for example the Tethyan and Paratethyan realms. As such, we invite contributions from the fields of mineralogy, geology, geophysics, petrology or hydrogeology, as well as all aspects of palaeontology, palaeobiogeography and biostratigraphy that are of relevance to the greater Alpine orogen and its surrounding oceans. Contributions on other regions are welcome if they embed their findings into a conceptual framework that relates the contribution to Alpine-type orogens and Alpine regions in general and are thus relevant to an international audience. Contributions are subject to peer review and editorial control according to SCI guidelines to ensure that the required standard of scientific excellence is maintained.

AUSTRIAN JOURNAL OF EARTH SCIENCES is a peer reviewed journal.

Why subscribe and read

The journal of the Austrian Geological Society is published for more than 100 years, starting in 1908 as ‘Mitteilungen der Geologischen Gesellschaft in Wien’. Traditionally, the main focus of the journal is on Alpine and Austrian geology and applied geosciences but contributions to all aspects of Earth Sciences are welcome. Austrian Journal of Earth Sciences is an Open Access Journal hosted as of 2018 by SCIENDO. For earlier back issues go to the Archive section at: ajes.at/index.php/archive
