Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I invite you to contribute in a Special Volume addressed at studying the stratigraphic setting of Mediterranean continental shelves and slopes through the integration of different geological data and methodologies, including seismic stratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy, basin analysis, tephrostratigraphy and facies analysis and sedimentology. Although Mediterranean shelves and slopes have been deeply studied, I am firmly convinced that more geological data will be available through integrated stratigraphic methodologies, if shown in this volume. Both contributions addressed to marine geology and field geological data are welcome.
Dr. Gemma Aiello
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Geosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
