AIMS AND SCOPE
Applied Geochemistry is an international journal devoted to original research papers in geochemistry and cosmochemistry which have some practical application to an aspect of human endeavour, such as the search for resources, their upgrading, preservation of the environment, agriculture and health. Within the wide range of topics covered byApplied Geochemistry are:
the search for energy resources such as petroleum, natural gas, geothermal energy, oil,
shales, tar sands and coal, as well as uranium;
the search for mineral resources, both metalliferous and
non-metalliferous;
geochemistry in relation to radioactive waste disposal;
geochemistry of water/rock
interaction;
environmental geochemistry and the use of geochemical knowledge for the protection of the environment from
pollution;
medical geochemistry or the association of diseases (human health) with, for example, trace elements in soils
and water;
agricultural aspects of geochemistry, e.g. association of growth with trace elements in soils and water.
