Earth & Planetary Insights (EPI) is dedicated to publishing high-quality, peer-reviewed research that advances our understanding of Earth’s processes and planetary sciences. The journal serves as a comprehensive platform for multidisciplinary studies, promoting innovative research that spans the natural and applied sciences relevant to Earth's systems and planetary exploration.
We are particularly interested in research that contributes to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), emphasizing sustainable practices and responsible stewardship of our planet. By fostering a deeper understanding of Earth's processes and its celestial counterparts, EPI aims to support the global scientific community in addressing pressing environmental challenges and promoting sustainable development.
Scope of the Journal
The journal is structured around six major thematic groups that represent the breadth of Earth and planetary sciences research. These groups provide a dynamic framework for the development of cross-disciplinary insights and solutions to contemporary scientific and environmental challenges:
- Geology, Exploration, and Sustainable Mining, (Aligned with SDG 7, SDG 9, SDG 12, SDG 15)
- Geoinformatics, Spatial Data Analytics, and Remote Sensing, (Aligned with SDG 9, SDG 11, SDG 13, SDG 15)
- Water Resources, Forest, Marine, and Ocean Ecosystems, (Aligned with SDG 6, SDG 14, SDG 15)
- Energy and Clean Technologies, (Aligned with SDG 7, SDG 9, SDG 12, SDG 13)
- Ecology, Environmental Economics, Education, and Legislation, (Aligned with SDG 4, SDG 8, SDG 13, SDG 16)
- Nano, Bio, Green, and Space Technologies for a Sustainable Future, (Aligned with SDG 7, SDG 9, SDG 12, SDG 13, SDG 14, SDG 15)
These groups serve as the core structure of the journal's scope, encompassing fundamental and applied research on Earth’s physical, chemical, and biological systems, as well as the exploration and study of planetary bodies.
We welcome submissions of original research, review articles, methodological studies, and case reports that present novel findings, challenge existing paradigms, or offer innovative solutions. Interdisciplinary research and contributions that span multiple thematic areas are especially encouraged.
Our goal is to be at the forefront of scientific exploration and technological innovation, supporting researchers, educators, policymakers, and industry leaders in their pursuit of a sustainable future. Earth & Planetary Insights (EPI) is committed to facilitating the exchange of knowledge, promoting the visibility of scientific work, and enhancing the societal impact of Earth and planetary sciences research.
