Aim & Scope
The Journal of Subsurface Energy, Fluids, and Environmental Systems is dedicated to advancing research on subsurface processes, energy recovery, and environmental sustainability. It provides a forum for interdisciplinary work that integrates geoscience, engineering, hydrology, and environmental studies.
We welcome research that investigates theoretical frameworks, experimental methods, field studies, and simulation models relevant to subsurface energy and environmental systems. Submissions may highlight established practices or emerging technologies, provided they contribute to understanding or application.
