The main topics published are as follows: (1) Results of scientific and technical research in seismology as well as papers in geophysics, tectonics and engineering related to earthquake studies; (2) Papers presenting differences of scientific points of views in the field of seismology; (3) The current status and significant advances in earthquake-related science; (4) Comments and discussions concerning seismology and earthquake studies. Four columns are presented in Earthquake Science: research papers, research notes, academic discussion and reviews. It is intended for those scientists, engineers, and teachers and students in universities and colleges engaged in seismology and geophysics in China and abroad.
Earthquake Science has become an important core journal in seismology and geophysics in China. To provide information on important topics, several special issues are published each year. These special issues are organized by well-known specialists, such as Professors Yaolin Shi, Chunyong Wang, Xiaodong Song, Fenglin Niu, Jiadong Qian, Sidao Ni, Xiaofei Chen, Yongshun John Chen, etc. The topics of these special issues cover a wide range of seismological and geophysical research fields. In 2008, a disastrous earthquake with a magnitude of 8.0 struck Wenchuan, Sichuan, China. More than nine hundred thousand people were killed or missing. This earthquake provided opportunities for seismologists to study the earthquake source process as well as many earthquake-related issues. Earthquake Science organized a timely special issue aimed at the hot-spot issues related to the Wenchuan earthquake.
