Journal Title：Geoscientific Model Development

Geoscientific Model Development (GMD) is an international scientific journal dedicated to the publication and public discussion of the description, development, and evaluation of numerical models of the Earth system and its components. The following manuscript types can be considered for peer-reviewed publication:

* geoscientific model descriptions, from statistical models to box models to GCMs;

* development and technical papers, describing developments such as new parameterizations or technical aspects of running models such as the reproducibility of results;

* new methods for assessment of models, including work on developing new metrics for assessing model performance and novel ways of comparing model results with observational data;

* papers describing new standard experiments for assessing model performance or novel ways of comparing model results with observational data;

* model experiment descriptions, including experimental details and project protocols;

* full evaluations of previously published models.

《地球科學模型開發(fā)》（GMD）是一本國際科學期刊，致力于發(fā)表和公開討論地球系統(tǒng)及其組成部分的數(shù)值模型的描述、開發(fā)和評估。以下類型的稿件可以考慮進行同行評審出版：

* 地球科學模型描述，從統(tǒng)計模型到箱體模型再到 GCM；

* 開發(fā)和技術論文，描述新參數(shù)化或運行模型的技術方面（如結果的可重復性）等發(fā)展；

* 評估模型的新方法，包括開發(fā)評估模型性能的新指標和將模型結果與觀測數(shù)據(jù)進行比較的新方法；

* 描述評估模型性能的新標準實驗或?qū)⒛Ｐ徒Y果與觀測數(shù)據(jù)進行比較的新方法的論文；

* 模型實驗描述，包括實驗細節(jié)和項目協(xié)議；

* 對以前發(fā)布的模型進行全面評估。

Geoscientific Model Development創(chuàng)刊于2008年，由Copernicus Gesellschaft mbH出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 較慢,6-12周 ，影響因子指數(shù)4，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
