Description
The Journal of Mineralogical and Petrological Sciences (JMPS) publishes in the fields of mineralogy, petrology, and planetary materials science, with the additional goal of striving toward the diffusion and progression of related scientific fields. As an international journal, we aim to provide international exposure for the results of research in Japan, as well as serve as a venue for the international exchange of research.
Given the remarkable rate at which publications have been expanding to include several fields, including planetary and earth sciences, materials science, and instrumental analysis technology, the journal aims to further the development of a variety of scientific and interdisciplinary fields, to encourage the wide scope of such new fields into the future, and to contribute to the growing international scientific community.
To cope with this emerging scientific environment, in April 2000 the journal's two parent societies, MSJ* (The Mineralogical Society of Japan) and JAMPEG* (The Japanese Association of Mineralogists, Petrologists and Economic Geologists), combined their respective journals (the Mineralogical Journal and the Journal of Mineralogy, Petrology and Economic Geology). The result of this merger was the Journal of Mineralogical and Petrological Sciences, which has a greatly expanded and enriched scope compared to its predecessors.
