Discover Geoscience is a fully open access, peer-reviewed journal that supports multidisciplinary research and policy developments across the field of geoscience. The journal aims to be an international resource for researchers, policy makers and the general public for recent advances in geoscience, and its uses in research development and society. As a fully open access journal, we ensure that our research is highly discoverable and instantly available globally to everyone. The journal particularly welcomes work that aims to address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, especially Life on Land; Affordable and Clean Energy; and Climate Action.
