Carbon Balance And Management

Journal Title：Carbon Balance And Management

Carbon Balance and Management is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that encompasses all aspects of research aimed at developing a comprehensive policy relevant to the understanding of the global carbon cycle.

The global carbon cycle involves important couplings between climate, atmospheric CO2 and the terrestrial and oceanic biospheres. The current transformation of the carbon cycle due to changes in climate and atmospheric composition is widely recognized as potentially dangerous for the biosphere and for the well-being of humankind, and therefore monitoring, understanding and predicting the evolution of the carbon cycle in the context of the whole biosphere (both terrestrial and marine) is a challenge to the scientific community.

This demands interdisciplinary research and new approaches for studying geographical and temporal distributions of carbon pools and fluxes, control and feedback mechanisms of the carbon-climate system, points of intervention and windows of opportunity for managing the carbon-climate-human system.

Carbon Balance and Management is a medium for researchers in the field to convey the results of their research across disciplinary boundaries. Through this dissemination of research, the journal aims to support the work of the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) and to provide governmental and non-governmental organizations with instantaneous access to continually emerging knowledge, including paradigm shifts and consensual views.

《碳平衡与管理》是一本开放获取、同行评审的在线期刊，涵盖了旨在制定与理解全球碳循环相关的综合政策的所有研究方面。

全球碳循环涉及气候、大气 CO2 以及陆地和海洋生物圈之间的重要耦合。目前由于气候和大气成分的变化而导致的碳循环转变被广泛认为对生物圈和人类福祉具有潜在危险，因此监测、了解和预测整个生物圈（陆地和海洋）背景下碳循环的演变对科学界来说是一个挑战。

这需要跨学科研究和新方法来研究碳库和碳通量的地理和时间分布、碳-气候系统的控制和反馈机制、干预点和管理碳-气候-人类系统的机会窗口。

《碳平衡与管理》是该领域研究人员跨学科传播研究成果的媒介。通过传播研究成果，该期刊旨在支持政府间气候变化专门委员会 (IPCC) 的工作，并为政府和非政府组织提供即时获取不断涌现的知识（包括范式转变和共识观点）的渠道。

Carbon Balance And Management创刊于2006年，由Springer International Publishing出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖Environmental Science - Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度 14 Weeks ，影响因子指数3.9，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
