Description
Island Arc attracts an international audience with its prompt publication of peer-reviewed papers on the growing earth geoscience research activities of the western Pacific Rim and Asia. Island Arc focuses on the structure, dynamics and evolution of plate convergence zones including trenches, island and continental arcs, back-arc basins and collision zones in modern and ancient settings. The Journal also deals with topics that may not be specific to plate convergence zones but are fundamental to understanding them. Papers which discuss the interaction between solid earth, atmosphere, and water bodies are also welcome. Articles of immediate importance to other researchers, either by virtue of their new data, results or ideas are given priority publication.
