Quaternary Science Reviews

期刊简介：Quaternary Science Reviews caters for all aspects of Quaternary science, and includes, for example, geology, geomorphology, geography, archaeology, soil science, palaeobotany, palaeontology, palaeoclimatology and the full range of applicable dating methods. The dividing line between what constitutes the review paper and one which contains new original data is not easy to establish, so QSR also publishes papers with new data especially if these perform a review function. All the Quaternary sciences are changing rapidly and subject to re-evaluation as the pace of discovery quickens; thus the diverse but comprehensive role of Quaternary Science Reviews keeps readers abreast of the wider issues relating to new developments in the field.

【译文】第四纪科学评论涵盖了第四纪科学的各个方面，例如地质学、地貌学、地理学、考古学、土壤学、古植物学、古生物学、古气候学以及所有适用的测年方法。区分综述论文和包含新原始数据的论文的界限并不容易确定，因此QSR还出版包含新数据的论文，特别是如果这些论文具有综述功能。所有第四纪科学都在迅速变化，并且随着发现的步伐加快而受到重新评估；因此，第四纪科学评论的多样但全面的作用使读者了解该领域新发展的更广泛问题。
