中文简介

第四纪科学综述涵盖了第四纪科学的各个方面，包括地质学、地貌学、地理学、考古学、土壤学、古植物学、古生物学、古气候学以及所有适用的年代测定方法。之间的分界线是复习纸和一个包含新的原始数据不容易建立,所以近年发表论文新数据尤其是如果这些执行审查功能,或可以适应更广泛的角度看,例如,在约会的方法。随着发现速度的加快，所有第四纪科学都在发生着迅速的变化，需要重新评价;因此，第四纪科学评论的兼收并蓄和全面的作用使读者及时了解与该领域新发展有关的更广泛的问题。《第四纪科学评论》偶尔刊载第四纪地质年代学专题，旨在为第四纪地质学家、地貌学家和考古学家提供讨论第四纪定年技术进展和问题的参考资料。这些问题将集中于审查文件、系统研究、相互比较和进展报告以及偶尔的会议记录。

英文简介

Quaternary Science Reviews caters for all aspects of Quaternary science, and includes, for example, geology, geomorphology, geography, archaeology, soil science, palaeobotany, palaeontology, palaeoclimatology and the full range of applicable dating methods. The dividing line between what constitutes the review paper and one which contains new original data is not easy to establish, so QSR also publishes papers with new data especially if these perform a review function, or can be so adapted for a wider perspective, for example, as in methods of dating. All the Quaternary sciences are changing rapidly and subject to re-evalsuation as the pace of discovery quickens; thus the eclectic and comprehensive role of Quaternary Science Reviews keeps readers abreast of the wider issues relating to new developments in the field. Quaternary Science Reviews includes occasional issues devoted to Quaternary Geochronology, with the aim of providing Quaternary geologists, geomorphologists and archaeologists with a reference source discussing progress and problems of dating techniques applicable to the Quaternary. These issues will focus on review papers, systematic studies, intercomparisons and progress reports and occasional conference proceedings.
