POLAR GEOGRAPHY

Polar Geography is a quarterly publication first published in 1977 as a
vehicle for making available, in English translation, important Soviet,
Japanese, and west European research on the polar regions. Over the years,
the journal's focus has shifted to the north circumpolar region with
emphasis on the Russian Arctic, publishing articles dealing with human as
well as physical dimensions of Arctic and Subarctic environments.

The new editorial team from Byrd Polar Research Center and the Department
of Geography at The Ohio State University are broadening the geographic
scope and scientific content of Polar Geography.

As the Arctic and Antarctic are integral components of the global climate
system, the editors will publish papers with a polar focus that recognize
these global interactions and thus will be of interest to a broader
audience than just the polar scientific community. The journal offers
scientists a venue for publishing longer papers such as might result from
distillation of a thesis, or review papers that place in global context
results from coordinated (international) research efforts currently
underway in both polar regions.
