Quaestiones Geographicae

Aims & Scope

Initially the scope of the journal covered issues in both physical and socio-economic geography; since 1982, exclusively physical geography.

In 2010 there appeared the idea of a return to the original conception of the journal, although in a somewhat modified organisational form.

Quaestiones Geographicae publishes research results of wide interest in the following fields: physical geography, economic and human geography, spatial management and planning, GIS and geoinformation, sustainable development (including regional and local development), environmental science, tourism and recreation.
