About the Journal
The Journal of Himalayan Earth Sciences (JHES) is a biannual peer-reviewed publication of the National Centre of Excellence in Geology (NCEG), University of Peshawar, Pakistan. The journal is officially recognized by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan in the “X” Category.
JHES provides a platform for the dissemination of original research and scholarly reviews in the broad field of geosciences. The journal welcomes contributions addressing theoretical, experimental, and applied aspects of earth science disciplines, including but not limited to:
- Sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic geology and geochemistry
- Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing applications in natural hazard assessment
- Geo-environmental issues and management
- Earthquake seismology and tectonics
- Engineering and exploration geophysics
While JHES accepts submissions from all geographical regions, priority is accorded to studies focused on the Himalayan region and adjacent terrains, reflecting the journal’s commitment to advancing geoscientific understanding of this tectonically and environmentally significant domain.
The journal aims to foster scientific exchange among geoscientists, promote interdisciplinary research, and contribute to the development of sustainable solutions for geological and environmental challenges in mountainous regions.
