Journal Title：Precambrian Research

Precambrian Research publishes studies on all aspects of the early stages of the composition, structure and evolution of the Earth and its planetary neighbours. With a focus on process-oriented and comparative studies, it covers, but is not restricted to, subjects such as:

(1) Chemical, biological, biochemical and cosmochemical evolution; the origin of life; the evolution of the oceans and atmosphere; the early fossil record; palaeobiology;

(2) Geochronology and isotope and elemental geochemistry;

(3) Precambrian mineral deposits;

(4) Geophysical aspects of the early Earth and Precambrian terrains;

(5) Nature, formation and evolution of the Precambrian lithosphere and mantle including magmatic, depositional, metamorphic and tectonic processes.

In addition, the editors particularly welcome integrated process-oriented studies that involve a combination of the above fields and comparative studies that demonstrate the effect of Precambrian evolution on Phanerozoic earth system processes.

Regional and localised studies of Precambrian phenomena are considered appropriate only when the detail and quality allow illustration of a wider process, or when significant gaps in basic knowledge of a particular area can be filled.

《前寒武紀(jì)研究》發(fā)表關(guān)于地球及其行星鄰居的組成、結(jié)構(gòu)和演化早期階段各個(gè)方面的研究。該研究側(cè)重于過程導(dǎo)向和比較研究，涵蓋但不限于以下主題：

(1) 化學(xué)、生物、生物化學(xué)和宇宙化學(xué)演化；生命起源；海洋和大氣的演化；早期化石記錄；古生物學(xué)；

(2) 地質(zhì)年代學(xué)和同位素與元素地球化學(xué)；

(3) 前寒武紀(jì)礦床；

(4) 早期地球和前寒武紀(jì)地形的地球物理方面；

(5) 前寒武紀(jì)巖石圈和地幔的性質(zhì)、形成和演化，包括巖漿、沉積、變質(zhì)和構(gòu)造過程。

此外，編輯們特別歡迎綜合過程導(dǎo)向研究，這些研究涉及上述領(lǐng)域的結(jié)合以及展示前寒武紀(jì)演化對(duì)顯生宙地球系統(tǒng)過程影響的比較研究。

只有當(dāng)細(xì)節(jié)和質(zhì)量能夠說明更廣泛的過程，或者可以填補(bǔ)特定區(qū)域基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)的重大空白時(shí)，才認(rèn)為對(duì)前寒武紀(jì)現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行區(qū)域和局部研究是合適的。

Precambrian Research創(chuàng)刊于1974年，由Elsevier出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋地學(xué) - 地球科學(xué)綜合全領(lǐng)域，此刊是該細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中屬于非常不錯(cuò)的SCI期刊，在行業(yè)細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中學(xué)術(shù)影響力較大，專業(yè)度認(rèn)可很高，所以對(duì)原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性較高，如果您的文章質(zhì)量很高，可以嘗試。平均審稿速度 一般,3-8周 約20.1周，影響因子指數(shù)3.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
