Earth & Planetary Insights welcomes scholarly contributions across six major scientific directions represented by the SGEM Earth and Planetary Sciences structure.

Earth and Planetary Insights (EPI) welcomes scholarly contributions across the broad scientific fields represented by the SGEM Earth and Planetary Sciences structure. The journal's topics are organized into six major scientific directions, covering geology, exploration and sustainable mining, geoinformatics and artificial intelligence, water and ecosystem sciences, clean energy technologies, environmental governance, and future-oriented nano, bio, green and space technologies.

The Topics page is intended to help authors identify the most suitable thematic area for their manuscripts and to provide readers, reviewers, librarians, and indexing services with a clear overview of the journal's academic profile. EPI welcomes original research articles, review papers, case studies, methodological papers, and interdisciplinary studies that demonstrate scientific relevance, methodological clarity, and contribution to current academic and professional debates.

Interdisciplinary Submissions

EPI encourages interdisciplinary manuscripts that connect two or more of the listed topic areas, provided that the submission remains clearly related to Earth sciences, environmental studies, geosciences, planetary science, sustainability, resource management, or related technological fields. Studies that combine scientific analysis with practical relevance, environmental responsibility, technological innovation, or sustainable development perspectives are especially welcome.

Authors should select the topic area that best reflects the main scientific contribution of their manuscript. Where a paper fits more than one direction, the primary topic should correspond to the central research aim, while secondary relevance may be reflected through the abstract, keywords, and manuscript content.

All submissions are expected to demonstrate a clear research question or objective, appropriate methodology, reliable evidence, accurate referencing, ethical compliance, and a meaningful contribution to the advancement of knowledge within the journal's scope.
