Computational Geoscience
This section covers computational geoscience within earth, geological and planetary science. It welcomes foundational questions, methodological contributions and well-supported applications that make a clear scholarly contribution. Authors should identify the problem, explain why the chosen approach is suitable, and report the sources, methods, assumptions or evidence needed for readers to assess the work.
Published by EJSIR Publisher. This section is part of the journal’s defined subject scope and is used to guide author selection and editorial routing.
Section scope
This section covers computational geoscience within earth, geological and planetary science. It welcomes foundational questions, methodological contributions and well-supported applications that make a clear scholarly contribution. Authors should identify the problem, explain why the chosen approach is suitable, and report the sources, methods, assumptions or evidence needed for readers to assess the work.
Example topics
The following examples illustrate the section’s subject range; they are not an exhaustive list.
- Foundational questions, concepts, theories or methods concerning computational geoscience within earth, geological and planetary science.
- Research using field, laboratory, geospatial, remote-sensing or modelling methods appropriate to the question, with data provenance and uncertainty reported to examine a defined problem in computational geoscience.
- Comparative, interdisciplinary or applied studies connecting computational geoscience with broader questions in earth, geological and planetary science, when the section’s scholarly contribution is explicit.
Scope boundary
Submissions that mention computational geoscience but do not make a substantive contribution, use methods appropriate to the question or support conclusions with suitable evidence fall outside this section’s scope.
Editorial assessment
Once the journal opens, a qualified editor will assess section fit and, where appropriate, coordinate independent peer review. Editors will make decisions under the journal’s published review and ethics policies.
