Journal Title：Island Arc

Island Arc is the official journal of the Geological Society of Japan. This journal focuses on the structure, dynamics and evolution of convergent plate boundaries, including trenches, volcanic arcs, subducting plates, and both accretionary and collisional orogens in modern and ancient settings. The Journal also opens to other key geological processes and features of broad interest such as oceanic basins, mid-ocean ridges, hot spots, continental cratons, and their surfaces and roots. Papers that discuss the interaction between solid earth, atmosphere, and bodies of water are also welcome. Articles of immediate importance to other researchers, either by virtue of their new data, results or ideas are given priority publication.

Island Arc publishes peer-reviewed articles and reviews. Original scientific articles, of a maximum length of 15 printed pages, are published promptly with a standard publication time from submission of 3 months. All articles are peer reviewed by at least two research experts in the field of the submitted paper.

Island Arc 是日本地質(zhì)學(xué)會的官方期刊。該期刊專注于匯聚板塊邊界的結(jié)構(gòu)、動力學(xué)和演化，包括海溝、火山弧、俯沖板塊以及現(xiàn)代和古代環(huán)境中的增生造山帶和碰撞造山帶。該期刊還向其他廣泛關(guān)注的關(guān)鍵地質(zhì)過程和特征開放，例如海洋盆地、洋中脊、熱點(diǎn)、大陸克拉通及其表面和根部。也歡迎討論固體地球、大氣和水體之間相互作用的論文。對其他研究人員具有直接重要性的文章（無論是憑借其新數(shù)據(jù)、結(jié)果還是想法）將優(yōu)先發(fā)表。

Island Arc 發(fā)表同行評審的文章和評論。原創(chuàng)科學(xué)文章（最長 15 頁印刷頁）將及時發(fā)表，標(biāo)準(zhǔn)出版時間為提交后的 3 個月。所有文章均由所提交論文領(lǐng)域的至少兩名研究專家進(jìn)行同行評審。

Island Arc創(chuàng)刊于1992年，由Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd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，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中專業(yè)影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質(zhì)量佳，選擇此期刊，發(fā)表機(jī)率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數(shù)1，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。
