Created in 2006, the Journal of Paleontological Techniques (JPT) aims to promote
and facilitate the sharing of techniques and methodologies in paleontological
research. These include techniques of excavation, collection, conservation,
preparation, and exhibition of (fossil) specimens, as well as new scientific
methodologies and approaches for paleontological studies. Therefore, we accept a
wide variety of articles, ranging from excavation reports, papers in preparation
techniques, new methodologies in the scientific study of fossils, and collection
catalogues, among others.(...)
News
The Journal of Paleontological Techniques
welcomes its new scientific editors from
Argentina, Germany, Italy, Belgium, South
Africa, France, and UK! We’re happy to
become more and more international, and now
also cover many more technique expertises
than ever before. Thanks to this fantastic
team! Furthermore, we appointed Femke
Holwerda as Alternate Editor-in-Chief. She
will handle editorial practices in cases
where the main Editor-in-Chief is involved
in the manuscript, and take over some
important issues concerning journal
management.
Meanwhile, JPT also updated the Instructions
for Authors. Please check the page
before submitting - even though you won’t
have to follow the guidelines for the
initial submission of your manuscript. We
don’t want you to make useless formatting
before knowing if the manuscript will be
accepted!
