The papers published in Marine Geophysical Researches emphasize the description and analysis of structures that can be investigated with geophysical methods only and the study of the physical processes that led to the origin of these structures. Papers related to Mid-Ocean Ridges are particularly welcome. Papers on new imaging techniques acknowledging the physical properties of the sea floor are especially encouraged provided they are applied to convincing scientific topics. No sharp dividing line is drawn between marine geophysics marine geochemistry and marine geology and this broad interpretation means that many areas of marine geology and marine geochemistry are included in Marine Geophysical Researches provided they are relevant to marine geophysics.

發(fā)表在《海洋地球物理研究》上的論文強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)只能用地球物理方法進(jìn)行研究的結(jié)構(gòu)的描述和分析，以及對(duì)導(dǎo)致這些結(jié)構(gòu)起源的物理過(guò)程的研究。與洋中脊有關(guān)的論文特別受歡迎。特別鼓勵(lì)關(guān)于承認(rèn)海底物理特性的新成像技術(shù)的論文，只要它們應(yīng)用于令人信服的科學(xué)主題。海洋地球物理、海洋地球化學(xué)和海洋地質(zhì)之間沒(méi)有明顯的分界線，這一寬泛的解釋意味著，只要與海洋地球物理有關(guān)，海洋地質(zhì)和海洋地球化學(xué)的許多領(lǐng)域都包括在海洋地球物理研究中。
