Aims & Scope
Quaternary and Environmental Geosciences (QEG) is for the publication of unpublished works in the areas of quaternary and environmental geosciences. QEG aims to publish high quality works on all Quaternary areas and environmental geosciences, from laboratory techniques to synthesis works. It aims to publish works from areas as diverse as climate variability and change, paleovegetation, paleoclimate and paleoenvironments, coastal geology and geomorphology, sea level variations, neotectonics, continental morphogenetic processes and products, sediment and soil geochemistry, geological hazards and paleoenvironment. , relationships between natural and anthropic geological processes, among others. We emphasize interest in interdisciplinary work. We discourage the publication of works that are not clearly linked with the Quaternary or the Environmental Geosciences. The main criterion for acceptance of the papers is their quality, originality, significance and interest to a broad regional to international community.
