Journal Title：Cretaceous Research

Cretaceous Research provides a forum for the rapid publication of research on all aspects of the Cretaceous Period, including its boundaries with the Jurassic and Palaeogene. Authoritative papers reporting detailed investigations of Cretaceous stratigraphy and palaeontology, studies of regional geology, and reviews of recently published books are complemented by short communications of significant new findings.

Papers submitted to Cretaceous Research should place the research in a broad context, with emphasis placed towards our better understanding of the Cretaceous, that are therefore of interest to the diverse, international readership of the journal. Full length papers that focus solely on a local theme or area will not be accepted for publication; authors of short communications are encouraged to discuss how their findings are of relevance to the Cretaceous on a broad scale.

Research Areas include:

? Regional geology

? Stratigraphy and palaeontology

? Palaeobiology

? Palaeobiogeography

? Palaeoceanography

? Palaeoclimatology

? Evolutionary Palaeoecology

? Geochronology

? Global events.

《白堊紀(jì)研究》為快速發(fā)表白堊紀(jì)各方面研究成果提供了一個(gè)平臺(tái)，包括白堊紀(jì)與侏羅紀(jì)和古近紀(jì)的分界線。權(quán)威論文報(bào)告了白堊紀(jì)地層和古生物學(xué)的詳細(xì)研究、區(qū)域地質(zhì)學(xué)研究和對(duì)最近出版的書籍的評(píng)論，并附有關(guān)于重要新發(fā)現(xiàn)的簡(jiǎn)短通訊。

提交給《白堊紀(jì)研究》的論文應(yīng)將研究置于廣泛的背景下，重點(diǎn)放在更好地了解白堊紀(jì)，因此這會(huì)引起該期刊多樣化的國(guó)際讀者的興趣。僅關(guān)注當(dāng)?shù)刂黝}或地區(qū)的全文論文將不被接受發(fā)表；鼓勵(lì)短文作者討論他們的發(fā)現(xiàn)與白堊紀(jì)的廣泛相關(guān)性。

研究領(lǐng)域包括：

? 區(qū)域地質(zhì)學(xué)

? 地層學(xué)和古生物學(xué)

? 古生物學(xué)

? 古生物地理學(xué)

? 古海洋學(xué)

? 古氣候?qū)W

? 進(jìn)化古生態(tài)學(xué)

? 地質(zhì)年代學(xué)

? 全球事件。

Cretaceous Research創(chuàng)刊于1980年，由Academic Press Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋地學(xué) - 地質(zhì)學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，此刊是中等級(jí)別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對(duì)來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯(cuò)，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 偏慢,4-8周 約12周，影響因子指數(shù)1.9，該期刊近期沒有被列入國(guó)際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
