Earth Surface Journal

FEB 01, 2003

DOI: 10.1063/1.4796974

Glacial activity, volcanism, tectonism, soil formation, and hillslope mass movement are a taste of the research topics to be covered in the Journal of Geophysical Research—Earth Surface, an interdisciplinary quarterly that the American Geophysical Union is launching this spring. Says founding editor Robert Anderson of the University of California, Santa Cruz, “I want this journal to serve as an outlet for science that applies rigorous quantitative methods to surface process problems. … At the moment, this kind of work is spread among at least a dozen journals. … We would like to bring such papers together, diminishing the sense that surface process work is somehow on the fringe.” Submissions and subscription information will be posted soon on AGU’s Web site, http://www.agu.org/journals/jf .
