Introduction
Epistora Journal of Earth Systems and Geoscience (EJESG) is a premier peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to advancing the understanding of Earth's dynamic systems and geological processes. Established to bridge fundamental geoscience research with societal challenges - from climate adaptation to natural hazard mitigation - EJESG serves as a global platform for geologists, climatologists, hydrologists and planetary scientists to disseminate transformative discoveries
The journal embraces the full spectrum of earth sciences - from solid Earth geophysics and geochemistry to surface processes, atmospheric dynamics and planetary geology. With a rigorous double-blind peer review process and rapid publication workflow, we ensure that high-impact research reaches the global community without delay. All articles are published under the CC BY 4.0 license, enabling unrestricted access, reuse and maximum societal impact
Our commitment extends beyond traditional publishing. We actively promote interdisciplinary collaboration, data transparency and reproducible science - essential for addressing complex Earth system questions. By combining scholarly excellence with modern publishing innovations, EJESG is shaping the future of geoscience communication
