… Introducing Graphical Abstracts & ‘Article Highlights’ beneath the abstract …
This journal publishes original research, new developments, and case studies in the field of geomechanics and geophysics, with special application to energy and resources in the Earth’s subsurface. Coverage spans the full scope of geomechanics and geophysics including theory and analysis, laboratory and field experiments, numerical methods and modeling techniques, and engineering applications and technology development related to energy and resources. This includes such topics as discovery and recovery of conventional and unconventional hydrocarbons, mining and resources engineering, natural and enhanced geothermal energy, geotechnical engineering of energy storage, geological solutions for energy and resources including geological disposal of energy wastes including sequestration of carbon dioxide.
The journal’s objectives are also to enhance the sustainability of the resources sector in line with the UN sustainable development goals 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and 13 (Climate Action).

COVID-19 and impact on peer review
As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times. Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.
