Name
Global and Planetary Change
Scope
The objective of this journal ``is to achieve a multidisciplinary view of the causes, processes and limits of variability in planetary change. The journal will focus on the record of change in earth history and the analysis and prediction of recent and future changes. Topics will include, but are not limited to, changes in the chemical composition of the oceans and atmosphere, climate change, sea level variations, human geography, global geophysics and tectonics, global ecology and biogeography. Key criteria for manuscripts are global scope or implications for global scale problems, significance beyond a single discipline and a focus on the causes, processes and limits of planetary change. Manuscripts can be submitted as either research contributions or as review articles. Extra effort should be directed towards presenting problems and results for a broad readership.''

Limnology and Oceanography
Scope
``Manuscripts treating basic research in any aspect of limnology and oceanography will be considered for publication. Contractual space limitations preclude consideration of applied work unless its clear focus is on the understanding of natural aquatic systems or unless its results have exceptionally general application. Papers are judged on the originality of their data, interpretations, and ideas and on the degree to which their findings can be generalized beyond the particular aquatic system examined.''

Name
Paleoceanography
Scope
This journal ``welcomes original scientific contributions dealing with the marine sedimentary record from the present ocean basins and margins and from exposures of ancient marine sediments on the continents. A wide range of approaches may be employed including sedimentology; isotope geochemistry; paleontology; seismic stratigraphy; physical, chemical, and biological oceanography; marine geology and geophysics; Quaternary geology; and modeling. The scope of the journal is global and regional rather than local, and of any age (Precambrian to Quaternary, including modern analogs).

Name
Palaeoclimates: Data and Modelling
Scope
This journal aims ``to provide a focus for all researchers working in the interdisciplinary subject area of palaeoclimatology. It ``will publish a balance of high quality papers on both the geological and climatological aspects of palaeoclimate research`` and ``be unique in bringing together palaeoclimate modelling and data studies in a single publication and by making geologists and modellers each aware of the details, strengths and limitations of the others' approaches will enhance and further joint research.'' It ``will include original research papers on all aspects of the climate and environment of the Quaternary and earlier times. Discussion and review papers will also be included, concerning new aspects of research and special topics of current and widespread interest to the palaeoclimate community.''
