GeoPlanet Series
A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO GEOPHYSICS, GEOLOGY, OCEANOLOGY AND PLANETOLOGY
This series is a forum for presenting the state-of-the-art and newest achievements in the Earth and space sciences. Its main objective is a multidisciplinary approach to link scientific activities in various Earth-related fields (geophysics, geology, oceanology) with the Solar System research. Our publications encompass topical monographs and selected conference proceedings, authored or edited by leading experts of international repute as well as by promising young scientists. We believe that the broad scope of problems dealt with by the GeoPlanet series may give a stimulus for new ideas and discoveries.
general
- The GeoPlanet series is in part a continuation of Monographic Volumes of Publications of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences. Its editors represent a consortium GeoPlanet (Earth and Planetary Research Centre), formed by four Institutes affiliated with the Polish Academy of Sciences: Institute of Geophysics, Space Research Centre, Institute of Geological Sciences, and Institute of Oceanology.
- The publications are produced in close cooperation between the GeoPlanet Series Editors and Springer-Verlag (GeoPlanet: Earth and Planetary Sciences Series)
- The manuscripts are to be prepared according to Springer's standards, and verified at the Editorial Office (see: For Authors). The final type-setting will be done by Springer.
- Our series is covered by the Web of Science Book Citation Index and Conference Proceeding Citation Index. For ranking by the Polish Minister of Science and Higher Education (see: Informacja)
- The publications are issued both in the internet and in printed form; the primary, full version, containing abstracts, is the internet edition.
