Aims and Scope

The Journal of Petrology provides an international forum for the publication of high quality research in the broad field of igneous and metamorphic petrology and petrogenesis. Papers published cover a vast range of topics in areas such as major element, trace element and isotope geochemistry and geochronology applied to petrogenesis; experimental petrology; processes of magma generation, differentiation and emplacement; quantitative studies of rock-forming minerals and their paragenesis; regional studies of igneous and meta morphic rocks which contribute to the solution of fundamental petrological problems; theoretical modelling of petrogenetic processes.

Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

I have gone through two papers, and the reviewing process was faster than I expected. The first paper had four reviewers, while the second had two. However, both papers received numerous and high-quality review comments, which greatly improved the manuscripts.
