Aims and Scopes

JOTG promotes the principles of transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration in geophysics by encouraging authors to share their tools, workflows, and datasets openly. The journal's scope is focused on the development and application of open technologies within geophysical disciplines, including but not limited to:

  • Development of Open-Source Software and Algorithms
  • Geophysical Data Processing, Inversion, and Modeling
  • Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Geophysics
  • Open Hardware and Geophysical Instrumentation
  • Applied Geophysics (Seismic, Gravity, Magnetic, Electrical, and Electromagnetic Methods)
  • Near-Surface Geophysics and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
  • Computational Seismology and Geodynamics
  • Remote Sensing and Earth Observation in Geophysical Contexts

With a specific focus on open technologies, JOTG serves as a platform for advancing accessible and replicable geophysical research. We encourage contributions that not only present scientific results but also provide practical tools, methodologies, and data that can be reused by others in the community.

The journal accepts submissions from researchers worldwide and publishes articles exclusively in English. JOTG is published biannually (two issues per year) and welcomes two types of submissions:

  • Full-length research articles
  • Short communications (brief reports or technical notes)
