Island Arc provides an opportunity for the prompt,
international and high-standard publication of research from all
fields of solid earth geosciences. Papers which discuss the
interaction between the solid earth, atmosphere, and water bodies
are also welcome. The journal has a particularly good track record
in publishing results of studies related to convergent plate
margins and to the Pacific and Asian regions.
The Journal 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 8 months. Articles describing new and
important results are given priority and will be published a
minimum of 4 months after submission. All articles are peer
reviewed by at least two researchers expert in the field of the
submitted paper.
