About the Journal

Soil Research (formerly known as Australian Journal of Soil Research) is an international journal that aims to rapidly publish high-quality, novel research about fundamental and applied aspects of soil science.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Carbon, nutrient and other elemental cycling
  • Land degradation, reclamation, remediation and rehabilitation
  • Newly emerging fields and methods in soil science
  • Pedology
  • Plant–soil–microbe Interactions and feedbacks
  • Soil biodiversity
  • Soil fertility and plant nutrition
  • Soil genesis
  • Soil geography
  • Soil mapping and evaluation
  • Soil mechanics
  • Soil mineralogy
  • Soil tillage and management
  • Soil-borne pathogens
  • Soil–plant interactions and feedbacks
  • Soils and food security
  • Soils and global change
