Indonesian Journal on Geoscience

Aims & Scope

The spirit to improve the journal to be more credible is increasing, and in 2012 it invited earth scientists in East and Southeast Asia as well as some western countries to join the journal for the editor positions in the Indonesia Journal of Geology.

This is also to realize our present goal to internationalize the journal, The Indonesian Journal on Geoscience, which is open for papers of geology, geophysics, geochemistry, geodetics, geography, and soil science.

This new born journal is expected to be published three times a year.

As an international publication, of course it must all be written in an international language, in this case English.

This adds difficulties to the effort to obtain good papers in English to publish although the credit points that an author will get are much higher.

This Journal publishes 3 numbers per year at least 15 articles.

It is a challenge for the management of the journal to remain survive and at the same time continuously maintain its quality and credibility in spite of those various constraints.

Fortunately, this effort is strongly supported by the Geological Agency of Indonesia, as the publisher and which financially bear the journal.

Last but not least the journal is also managed by senior geologist of various subdisciplines from various countries who are responsible for its quality.
