精確和有效地成像地下結(jié)構(gòu)和建立地下過程的模型需要數(shù)學(xué)家、工程師、化學(xué)家、物理學(xué)家和地球科學(xué)家之間的多學(xué)科合作。目前還沒有一種期刊的主要目標(biāo)是為這些不同的科學(xué)團體之間的互動提供一個平臺。為了解決這一問題，我們建議建立一本新的計算地球科學(xué)雜志。這本國際期刊的目的是促進各學(xué)科之間、大學(xué)之間、工業(yè)和政府實驗室之間的思想交流。計算地球科學(xué)將發(fā)表高質(zhì)量的數(shù)學(xué)建模、模擬數(shù)據(jù)分析、成像反演和解釋以及在地球科學(xué)中的應(yīng)用論文。所涵蓋的主題和應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域包括水庫和環(huán)境工程、水文、地球化學(xué)、地質(zhì)力學(xué)、地震和電磁成像、地質(zhì)統(tǒng)計學(xué)、水庫/含水層特征和高性能并行計算。更具體地說，計算地球科學(xué)歡迎諸如生物修復(fù)、擴散和分散地質(zhì)學(xué)和地質(zhì)統(tǒng)計學(xué)擴大多相流和反應(yīng)輸運、地球物理成像和反演方法、地震和電磁建模、數(shù)值方法以及并行計算等方面的貢獻。邀請理論和應(yīng)用科學(xué)家參加。計算地球科學(xué)主要關(guān)注可滲透介質(zhì)中描述傳輸過程的模型的定量方面。它的對象是石油工程師、水文工程師、定量環(huán)境工程師、土壤物理學(xué)家、土壤和地球化學(xué)家、應(yīng)用數(shù)學(xué)家、地質(zhì)學(xué)家和地震學(xué)家。

Accurate and efficient imaging of subsurface structure and modeling of processes in the subsurface require multidisciplinary collaboration among mathematicians engineers chemists physicists and geoscientists. Presently there exists no journal whose main objective is to provide a platform for interaction among these diverse scientific groups. To remedy this we propose to establish a new journal Computational Geosciences . The aim of this international journal is to facilitate the exchange of ideas across the disciplines and among universities and industrial and governmental laboratories. Computational Geosciences will publish high quality papers on mathematical modeling simulation data analysis imaging inversion and interpretation with applications in the geosciences. The themes and application areas to be covered include reservoir and environmental engineering hydrology geochemistry geomechanics seismic and electromagnetic imaging geostatistics and reservoir/aquifer characterization and high performance parallel computing. More specifically Computational Geosciences welcomes contributions concerning for example bioremediation diffusion and dispersion geology and geostatistics scale up multiphase flow and reactive transport geophysical imaging and inversion methods seismic and electromagnetic modeling numerical methods and parallel computing. Both theoretical and applied scientists are invited to participate. Computational Geosciences focuses mainly on quantitative aspects of models describing transport processes in permeable media. It is targeted at petroleum engineers hydrologists quantitative environmental engineers soil physicists soil and geochemists applied mathematicians geologists and seismologists.
