The Journal is published in English. The main purpose of the Journal is to provide the scientific community with the most important scientific results obtained by the Russian scientists. Articles submitted by foreign scientists or international authors teams are highly encouraged, especially studies of general problem of Earth Sciences and investigations of Northern Eurasia.

Articles submitted to the Journal are passed through standard peer-review process, except articles submitted by the Members of Russian Academy of Sciences. All articles are passed through standard editorial processing.

Accepted papers are published in high-resolution PDF format enhanced with local (to floats and references) and external (to documents in Internet) hyperlinks. The online version of the Journal is primary. The style of Journal is fully compatible with the typical scientific journals, so print companion can be easily produced by sending PDF version to printer.

The Editorial Board highly encourages including interactive and dynamic content into submitted articles, e.g. interactive maps, maps with dynamic paging (Google-type maps), animations, video clips in .avi, .mpg, .mp3, .flv, .swf, etc. formats (see Recommendations to Authors for more detail).
