Frontiers in Earth Science

Join us for an exciting seminar series hosted by Frontiers in Earth Science, featuring live presentations from prominent authors and editors dedicated to advancing our understanding of the Earth's physical and chemical processes. Led by Field Chief Editor, Professor Valerio Acocella, these seminars will explore a wide range of topics, including geochemistry, climatology, and volcanology, bridging the various domains of Earth science. This series aims to address major environmental challenges and promote scientific knowledge that supports climate action and sustainable development.

Valerio Acocella graduated in Geosciences at La Sapienza University, Roma, Italy. After a Ph.D. in 2000 on magma emplacement at the University of Siena, Italy, he focused on volcano structure, deformation and dynamics at the University of Roma Tre, where he is currently professor.

VA is author of >150 papers, giving >200 presentations and collaborating with >50 research institutes worldwide.

VA has published a 570 pages monograph on "Volcano-Tectonic Processes" for Springer (https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-65968-4).

His current h-index is 47 (ISI) or 55 (Google Scholar).

VA ranks within the 2% world top scientists according to Stanford University (USA).

VA mostly uses field analysis, analogue modelling, remote sensing, InSAR and numerical modelling, applied to volcanoes and intrusions in Italy (Ischia, Campi Flegrei, Vesuvio, Stromboli, Etna, Vulsini, Amiata, Southern Tuscany) and worldwide (Iceland, Ethiopia, Afar, New Zealand, Japan, Kamchatka, Central Andes, Easter Island, Azores, Iran and Galapagos Islands).

VA has been participating at >20 national and international projects, of which 8 as coordinator, including large projects on Etna and Campi Flegrei.

In the last 2 decades VA has been regularly organizing scientific sessions on volcanoes at major international meetings (EGU, AGU, IAVCEI).

From 2010 to 2014 VA has been responsible for the IAVCEI Commission on Collapse Calderas.

Frontiers in Earth Science

Frontiers in Earth Science is a multidisciplinary journal that welcomes research that enhances our understanding of the Earth’s physical and chemical properties and processes, and aims to address major environmental challenges.

Led by Field Chief Editor Prof. Valerio Acocella (Roma Tre University, Italy), Frontiers in Earth Science is included in Scopus, SCIE and DOAJ among others and welcomes submissions across field, bridging the different domains of Earth science, from the lithosphere, to the hydrosphere, and the atmosphere. Frontiers in Earth Science is dedicated to the Earth’s processes, such as geosciences, hydrology, meteorology and climatology.

Topics include:

  • atmospheric science
  • biogeoscience
  • cryospheric sciences
  • earth and planetary materials
  • economic geology
  • geochemistry
  • geohazards and georisks
  • geoinformatics
  • geomagnetism and paleomagnetism
  • geoscience and society
  • hydrosphere
  • interdisciplinary climate studies
  • marine geoscience
  • paleontology
  • petrology
  • quaternary science, geomorphology and paleoenvironment
  • sedimentology, stratigraphy and diagenesis
  • solid earth geophysics
  • structural geology and tectonics
  • volcanology.

The journal welcomes submissions which support and advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), notably SDG 13: climate action, in the reporting and monitoring of the impact of human activity and climate change on the Earth.

Manuscripts that focus on the technical aspects of mining engineering, civil engineering, and construction, including but not limited to, rock mechanics, mining-induced disasters, and construction land use, are not suitable for publication in this journal. Studies that primarily deal with the physical properties of materials, such as cohesion, shear stress, and bending moment, without a relevance to broader earth science themes, are also outside the journal's scope.

Frontiers in Earth Science is committed to advancing developments in the field of Earth science by allowing unrestricted access to articles, and communicating scientific knowledge to researchers and the public alike, to enable the scientific breakthroughs of the future.

Frontiers in Earth Science is member of the Committee on Publication Ethics.
