Service Charges

Advances in Geosciences is committed to the Open Access model of publishing. This ensures free web access to the results of research and the maximum visibility for published papers. However it requires the author to pay the costs of the typesetting, web publication and long term archiving.

The payment of service charges includes:

  • Professional processing of figures and movies;
  • Typesetting, editing and formatting in PDF LaTeX;
  • LaTeX macros and MS WORD templates for free use;
  • Immediate Open Access publication of each article;
  • Inclusion in the Copernicus Online Library (incl. mirror-servers and backup facilities) as well as in international scientific databases, index and reference machines;
  • Long-term e-archiving via Portico as well as printed archiving via copyright libraries worldwide.

For proceedings or special publications with an external evaluation only production charges will be levied, currently €20 / page net + 19% VAT in the final journal style.

For copy-editing (requested by the editor) an additional fee will be added of €10 net per full page in journal style.
