About the journal
Aims and scope
Earth Surface Dynamics (ESurf) is an international scientific journal dedicated to the publication and discussion of high-quality research on the physical, chemical, and biological processes shaping Earth's surface and their interactions on all scales.
The main subject areas of ESurf comprise field measurements, remote sensing, and experimental and numerical modelling of Earth surface processes, and their interactions with the lithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and pedosphere.
ESurf prioritizes studies with general implications for Earth surface science and especially values contributions that straddle discipline boundaries, enhance theory–observation feedback, and/or apply basic principles from physics, chemistry, or biology.
The manuscript types considered for publication in ESurf are research articles, review articles, short communications, and comments/replies.
Earth Surface Dynamics has a two-stage publication process which involves a scientific discussion forum and utilizes the full potential of the Internet to do the following:
- foster scientific discussion;
- enhance the effectiveness and transparency of scientific quality assurance;
- enable rapid publication;
- make scientific publications freely accessible.
In the first stage, papers that pass a rapid access review by one of the editors are immediately published on the Earth Surface Dynamics Discussions (ESurfD) website. They are then subject to interactive public discussion, during which the referee's comments (anonymous or attributed), additional short comments by other members of the scientific community (attributed), and the author's replies are also published in ESurfD. In the second stage, the peer-review and revision process is completed, and if accepted finalized papers are published in ESurf. To ensure publication precedence for authors, and to provide a lasting record of scientific discussion, ESurfD and ESurf are both ISSN-registered, permanently archived, and fully citable.
Journal subject areas
Earth Surface Dynamics (ESurf) welcomes papers studying the physical, chemical, and biological interactions with the Earth's surface. Papers may involve advances in theory, new observations using field or remote techniques as well as experimental and numerical modelling of Earth surface processes and their interactions with the lithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and pedosphere.
ESurf prioritizes studies with general implications for Earth surface science and especially values contributions that straddle discipline boundaries, enhance theory–observation feedback, and/or apply basic principles from physics, chemistry, or biology. These may be over any timescale and space scale.
General ESurf subject areas are described below, but this list is not exclusive and we actively encourage papers that span or go beyond them.

Instructions to Authors
Manuscript types
The following types of manuscripts can be considered for peer-reviewed publication in Earth Surface Dynamics (ESurf) and its discussion forum Earth Surface Dynamics Discussions (ESurfD):
- Research articles report substantial and original scientific results within the journal scope.
- Review articles summarize the status of knowledge and outline future directions of research within the journal scope. Before preparing and submitting a review article, please contact an associate editor covering the relevant subject area and the managing editor.
- Short communications report new developments, significant advances, and novel aspects of experimental, modelling, and theoretical methods and techniques which are relevant for scientific investigations within the journal scope. Manuscripts of this type should be short (a few pages only). Highly detailed and specific technical information such as computer programme code or user manuals can be included as electronic supplements. The manuscript title must start with "Short communication:".
- Comments (and replies thereon) continue the discussion of papers published in ESurf beyond the limits of immediate interactive discussion. They may be longer and submitted later than the comments exchanged in the interactive public discussion of papers in ESurfD. They undergo the same process of peer review, publication, and interactive discussion as articles and technical notes and are equivalent to the peer-reviewed comments and replies in traditional scientific journals. The manuscript title should start with "Comment on" or "Reply to".
- Corrigenda correct errors in preceding papers. The manuscript title reads as follows: Corrigendum to "TITLE" published in JOURNAL, VOLUME, PAGES, YEAR. Please note that corrigenda are only possible for final revised journal papers and not for the corresponding discussion paper.
Submit your manuscript
First steps
Before the submission of your manuscript to the Editorial Support for peer review, you are kindly requested to do the following:
File submission for review process
After the manuscript registration, you are kindly asked to upload those files which are necessary for the peer-review process. The following files are required:
- the abstract (title, authors, affiliations, abstract text, sample) as a *.pdf file;
- the complete manuscript (abstract, text, tables, figures) as a *.pdf file.
Other possible review files include the following:
- Any supplementary material (if available) must be submitted as a *.zip archive or single *.pdf file. The overall file size of a supplement is limited to 50 MB. Authors of larger supplements are kindly asked to submit their files to a reliable data repository and to insert a link in the manuscript. Ideally, this linkage is realized through DOIs (digital object identifiers).
- The author's response (also final author comment in the public discussion) in case of "minor" or "major" revisions must be submitted as one separate *.pdf file (indicating page and line numbers), structured in a clear and easy-to-follow sequence: (1) comments from referees/public, (2) author's response, and (3) author's changes in manuscript. Regarding author's changes, a marked-up manuscript version (track changes in Word, latexdiff in LaTeX) converted into *.pdf including the author's response must be provided.
File submission for publication of discussion paper
After the acceptance of your manuscript for publication as discussion paper in the discussion forum of the journal, you will be informed by email and are kindly asked to upload your discussion paper as *.pdf file. Discussion papers do not undergo typesetting and proofreading; instead, Copernicus adds a citation header to your uploaded *.pdf file and the merged file will then be published. Please note the sketch of this process.
File submission for production of final revised paper
After the final acceptance of your manuscript for publication in the journal, you will be informed by email and are kindly asked to complete the file upload for the publication production process. Then, please submit the following files:
- the actual text followed by the table(s) and figure caption(s) prepared in the way as outlined in the manuscript preparation as one file in LaTeX (as a *.tex file) or MS Word format (as a *.doc file);
- all figures, numbered (e.g. f01, f02, ..., f11, f01a, f01b) and prepared in the way as outlined in the manuscript preparation, as one *.zip archive (or other compressed formats). Possible figure formats are *.pdf, *.ps, *.eps, *.jpg, *.png, *.tif, and *.gif.
Remark on file sizes
Authors are kindly asked to find the best balance between quality of figures (and submitted material) and overall file size. Individual figures should not exceed 5 MB, and the overall size of all submitted files excluding supplements should not exceed 30 MB.
