Polarforschung

Academic journal

Polarforschung is a biannual peer-reviewed open-access academic journal published by Copernicus Publications on behalf of the German Society for Polar Research and the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research. It was established in 1931, with articles appearing both in English and German. It covers a range of topics broadly related to the fields of polar, glaciological, and high-mountain research. Historically, reports from polar expeditions and reviews on polar topics were published as well. Though the journal originally published only on topics within the natural sciences, the current version of the journal includes contributions from an expanded range of polar and high-mountain research disciplines, including biology and ecology, geology and geophysics, geodesy and glaciology, permafrost, oceanography, climate and meteorology, history and social sciences, education, and outreach and knowledge transfer. The journal publishes scientific articles, review articles, reports for the polar community, teaching materials or concepts, and book reviews, alongside news and updates from the German Society for Polar Research, the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists Germany Board, and relevant conference reports. The journal no longer accepts manuscripts which show yet-unpublished or original data and results, and instead focuses on scientific articles with an overarching thematic focus.
