Focus and Scope

Jambura Geoscience Review (JGEOSREV, P-ISSN: 2623-0682, E-ISSN: 2656-0380) is an open-access journal, which publishes original papers about all aspects of the Earth and Geosciences. This comprises the solid earth, the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, and the biosphere. In addition, it provides a particular place, and an advanced forum, for contributions on natural hazards, geoscience-related environmental problems. The scope of the articles listed in this journal relates to various topics, including: 

Geography; The subject related to physical process and spatial patterns at the earth's surface, physio-geographical elements and their interaction, global change and its regional response, characters and management of natural resources, landscape ecology and environmental construction, remote sensing, geographic information system and their applications in geographical research.

Geology; The subject covers variety of topics including geodynamics, sedimentology and stratigraphy, volcanology, engineering geology, environmental geology, hydrogeology, geo-hazard and mitigation, mineral resources, energy resources, medical geology, geo-archaeology.

Hydrology; The subject related to research addressing issues in integrated water management, surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology, ecohydrology, hydrometeorology, water quality.

Meteorology and Climatology; The research includes topics such as weather modification, satellite meteorology, radar meteorology, boundary layer processes, physical meteorology, air pollution meteorology, agricultural and forest meteorology, mountain meteorology, and applied meteorological numerical models. Climatological research includes the use of climate information in impact assessments, seasonal climate forecast applications and verification, climate risk and vulnerability, development of climate monitoring tools, and urban and local climates.

Biogeography; Appropriate topics include innovative applications or methods of species distribution modeling or identifying the agents of global change, including how climate change, land-use change, and invasive species affect the abundance, distribution, and range boundaries of native species.

Geodesy; The Subject covers the whole range of geodetic and reports on theoretical and applied studies in research areas such as positioning, reference frame, geodetic networks, modeling and quality control, gravity fields

Geophysics; The subject covers the variety of topics including earthquakes and seismology, size and structure of the earth, gravity, geomagnetism, mineral physics.

Remote Sensing; The subjects related to research on remote sensing include: remotely sensed data collection, surveying from space, imaging and related sensors, image processing, use of remotely sensed data, drones section: remote sensing with unmanned aerial systems.

Geographic Information System; The subject research covers innovations in GIScience and novel applications of GIScience in natural resources and the built environment, as well as relevant developments in computer science, cartography, surveying, geography.

Geomorphology; The subject related to fluvial sequences, fluvial processes and landforms, hillslopes and soil erosion, weathering, karst and soils, coastal dunes and arid environments; coastal and marine processes, estuaries and lakes, modelling, theoretical and quantitative geomorphology.

Natural Hazards and Risk; Approaches and case studies using geospatial and remote sensing techniques to study monitoring, mapping, risk mitigation, risk vulnerability, and early warning of natural hazards.

Environment; The subject covers several topics of environmental studies including environmental policy and management, disaster mitigation, regional planning, land resources evaluation, systems modeling and sciences, water pollution, air pollution, environmental technology.

Peer Review Process

Jambura Geoscience Review (JGEOSREV) publishes articles following JGEOSREV guidelines and templates. A pre-review of the manuscript was conducted by an editorial team to review the suitability of the text with the focus and scope and style of the journal and JGEOSREV writing guidelines. All manuscripts sent will go through a double-blind review process. Manuscripts will be sent to a minimum of two reviewers based on their field of specialization. Reviewers provide script assessments that include originality, scientific contributions, and presentation clarity. Based on the comments and suggestions from the editorial board reviewer made a decision on the reviewer's comments and suggestions. JGEOSREV has four types of decisions including accepted, accepted by minor revisions, accepted by major revisions, and rejected. Plagiarism examination is performed using Turnitin and Plagiarism Checker X software. 

 

Publication Frequency

JGEOSREV is scheduled for publication in January and July (2 issues a year). It is electronically published via journal website (http://ejurnal.ung.ac.id/index.php/jgeosrev). Each issue number (issue) amounts to a minimum of five (5) the title and published article will be assigned a DOI (digital object identifier).

 

Open Access Policy

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.

By "open access" to this literature, we mean its free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited.

 

Archiving

This journal utilizes the LOCKSS system to create a distributed archiving system among participating libraries and permits those libraries to create permanent archives of the journal for purposes of preservation and restoration. More...
