The Journal of Sedimentary Research publishes the most recent advances in basic research in the study of sediments. Research papers in this international journal are concerned with both ancient and modern sediments. Areas of specialty include petrology, petrography, diagenesis of sedimentary deposits and sediments, processes of sedimentation, characterization of depositional systems and environments, stratigraphy, sedimentary tectonics, sedimentary basin studies, sedimentary geochemistry, sedimentary mineralogy, coal geology, orbital forcing, paleosols, carbonate platforms, hydrocarbon reservoirs, and evaporite sedimentology. JSR also features book reviews, meeting announcements, and discussions and replies to previously published papers.
JSR Subscriber Benefits
The Journal of Sedimentary Research offers:
Quality Content
• JSR is the oldest journal in the field of sedimentary geology, with a long tradition of careful review, high production values, and outstanding content, Volume 1 was issued in 1931.
• In an examination of papers in this field published over a 10-year period (Racki, 2002), 8 of the 10 top-cited papers appeared in JSR. JSR is truly an indispensable resource for your library's geoscience patrons.
• JSR uses a large board of Associate Editors to ensure that the review of every submitted paper is handled by experts who are responsible for recruiting outside reviews from the top workers in the given subspeciality. JSR's acceptance rate of around 50 percent reflects an editorial policy that is dedicated to selecting only the most innovative and high-quality content.
Quality Delivery
• JSR is hosted online at HighWire Press (HWP) of Stanford University, a premier science online vendor.
• JSR access includes articles for the year 2000 forward in full html and PDF formats. This includes 700+ articles and 7500+ pages of online material.
• JSR access also includes the entire archives of JSR articles from 1931 to 1999 in PDF format, with over 50,000 pages and over 5,000 articles.
