A new issue of the journal Volumina Jurassica - Volume XXII (2024) has already been published. The publication is also available in a free online version.
The current issue contains 7 scientific articles and is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Gregory Pieńkowski, who died in April 2023. The journal is published in English and provides a forum for the exchange of information on the Jurassic system worldwide.
Volumina Jurassica is a peer-reviewed international geological journal aimed at scientists working on the Jurassic system. It is published by the Polish Geological Institute - National Research Institute and the Faculty of Geology of the University of Warsaw and supported by the International Subcommission on Jurassic Stratigraphy (ISJS) of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS).
The journal's editors are Jurassic System researchers from both editorial institutions. The editorial advisory board represents an international group of specialists who are well-known experts in various areas of the Jurassic system, including those closely related to the ISJS - thus ensuring a close link between the journal's editorial policy and the activities of this international organisation.
The history of the journal began in 2003, when it was originally founded under the name Jurassic Volumes (Tomy Jurajskie), later changed (from 2006) to Volumina Jurassica. At that time, it was edited by the Faculty of Geology of the University of Warsaw. Since 2010, the journal has been edited by both institutions.
Volumina Jurassica publishes both original research articles on all aspects of the Jurassic system, including its boundaries with the Triassic and Cretaceous, and reviews - special papers presenting a comprehensive analysis of previously published material. In addition to the peer-reviewed articles, the journal publishes short notes detailing the progress of the ISJS working groups' activities, especially with respect to the recognition of GSSP stages, discussions, book reviews, reports and other short notes.
Volumina Jurassica is published once or twice a year, depending on the number of manuscripts submitted. The journal provides immediate open access to its content and is abstracted and indexed in Scopus, BazTech, BIOSIS previews, Index Copernicus, Zoological Record, Biological Abstracts, Biosis Previews and Geological Bibliography of Poland databases.
The editor-in-chief is Prof. dr hab. Hubert Wierzbowski.
