Earth and Planetary Physics is an academic journal focused on the field of Earth and planetary sciences, covering a wide range of disciplines and research topics. The journal is dedicated to publishing high-quality research papers in a variety of fields, including solid geophysics, atmospheric physics, space physics, and planetary science.

In solid geophysics, the journal focuses on the study of the Earth's internal structure, the physical properties of the crust and mantle, seismology, geothermics, and lithosphere dynamics. These studies contribute to a deeper understanding of the Earth's structure, evolution, and seismic activity. The atmospheric physics section covers topics such as the structure and dynamics of the atmosphere, climate change, atmospheric chemistry, and radiative transport. These studies are critical to understanding the effects of the atmosphere on the Earth's climate system.
