Aims & Scope
The Pakistan Journal of Geology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research that advances knowledge of Earth’s structure, materials, processes, and resources, with a special emphasis on Pakistan, Asia, and Africa. The journal aims to provide a platform for geoscientists, researchers, and professionals to share original research articles, reviews, and applied studies that address both fundamental questions and practical challenges in the geosciences.
Scope of the Journal
- Stratigraphy, sedimentology, and paleontology
- Structural geology, tectonics, and geodynamics, particularly in the Himalayan, Karakoram, Asian, and African orogenic belts
- Mineralogy, petrology, and geochemistry
- Geophysics, seismology, volcanology, and geohazards
- Hydrogeology, groundwater management, and environmental geosciences
- Exploration and sustainable development of mineral, energy, and water resources
- Quaternary geology, climate change studies, and geomorphology
- Applied geosciences in engineering, infrastructure, hazard mitigation, and resource management
The journal strongly encourages interdisciplinary research that combines field investigations, laboratory analysis, remote sensing, and numerical modeling. By fostering collaboration across Asia, Africa, and the global geoscience community, The Pakistan Journal of Geology seeks to advance Earth science research, support sustainable resource use, and enhance resilience against geological and environmental hazards.
