Environmental Science: Advances is an international and collaborative journal

Collaborations are becoming increasingly important for the environmental sciences. Environmental science doesn’t recognize boundaries, requiring interactions from researchers from different disciplines and different backgrounds to address research challenges. As an international journal, Environmental Science: Advances believes that international research enables us to publish and disseminate research findings to different populations, cultures, and regions. Collaborative research is the cornerstone for developing strong relationships and solving global challenges in the environmental sciences.

We are delighted to be sharing with you a selection of international and collaborative work published in the journal:
