GENUS - Journal of Population Sciences - is an open access peer-reviewed journal published by Springer on behalf of the Sapienza University of Rome. Founded in 1934 by Corrado Gini, GENUS has adopted an interdisciplinary approach to population studies. It has an interdisciplinary focus by publishing articles of “pure” demography and articles aiming to further a better knowledge of the interrelationship between demography and biological, social and economic phenomena, connected with the evolution of the population. These have spanned not only pure demography but also anthropology and anthropometric, sociology and psychology, biology and genetics. In keeping with the times -and particularly from 1965 under Nora Federici, and from 1993 under Antonio Golini as directors – an increasing number of articles have been published on general population theories, population dynamics and mathematical demography. GENUS has always tried to promote open dialogue across cultural, ideological and at times theoretical walls in the attempt to understand the complexities underlying population issues.

Geoscientific Model Development (GMD) is an international scientific journal dedicated to the publication and public discussion of the description, development and evaluation of numerical models of the Earth System and its components.

Southeastern Archaeology is a refereed journal that publishes works concerning the archaeology and history of southeastern North America and neighboring regions. It covers all time periods, from Paleoindian to recent history and defines the southeast broadly; this could be anything from Florida (south) to Wisconsin (North) and from Oklahoma (west) to Virginia (east). Reports or articles that cover neighboring regions such as the Northeast, Plains, or Caribbean would be considered if they had sufficient relevance.

Papers need not have been presented at a meeting of the Southeastern Archaeological Conference in order to be considered for publication. The Journal publishes:

·  Articles of a theoretical nature that provide novel insights into a significant
   question or issue of interest to a wide professional readership.

·  Review articles such as updated regional or topical summaries that are also
   designed to appeal to a fairly wide professional readership. 

·  Technical and methodological reports that are of regional significance, and that
   would be comprehensible to most readers.

·  Field reports whose results in terms of interpretive content seem clearly to be of
   regional interest.
