Journal Title：Cretaceous Research

Cretaceous Research provides a forum for the rapid publication of research on all aspects of the Cretaceous Period, including its boundaries with the Jurassic and Palaeogene. Authoritative papers reporting detailed investigations of Cretaceous stratigraphy and palaeontology, studies of regional geology, and reviews of recently published books are complemented by short communications of significant new findings.

Papers submitted to Cretaceous Research should place the research in a broad context, with emphasis placed towards our better understanding of the Cretaceous, that are therefore of interest to the diverse, international readership of the journal. Full length papers that focus solely on a local theme or area will not be accepted for publication; authors of short communications are encouraged to discuss how their findings are of relevance to the Cretaceous on a broad scale.

Research Areas include:

? Regional geology

? Stratigraphy and palaeontology

? Palaeobiology

? Palaeobiogeography

? Palaeoceanography

? Palaeoclimatology

? Evolutionary Palaeoecology

? Geochronology

? Global events.

《白堊紀研究》為快速發表白堊紀各方面研究成果提供了一個平臺，包括白堊紀與侏羅紀和古近紀的分界線。權威論文報告了白堊紀地層和古生物學的詳細研究、區域地質學研究和對最近出版的書籍的評論，并附有關于重要新發現的簡短通訊。

提交給《白堊紀研究》的論文應將研究置于廣泛的背景下，重點放在更好地了解白堊紀，因此這會引起該期刊多樣化的國際讀者的興趣。僅關注當地主題或地區的全文論文將不被接受發表；鼓勵短文作者討論他們的發現與白堊紀的廣泛相關性。

研究領域包括：

? 區域地質學

? 地層學和古生物學

? 古生物學

? 古生物地理學

? 古海洋學

? 古氣候學

? 進化古生態學

? 地質年代學

? 全球事件。

Cretaceous Research創刊于1980年，由Academic Press Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋地學 - 地質學全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 偏慢,4-8周 約12周，影響因子指數1.9，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
