global-biogeochemical-cycles
separate
Use when targeting Global Biogeochemical Cycles (GBC) or deciding whether a biogeochemical-cycling manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's system-scale fluxes/budgets/feedbacks fit, the quantitative biogeochemistry evidence bar, AGU FAIR data-deposition expectations, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
When to use
- fit/framing check for a biogeochemical-cycling, flux/budget, or feedback paper
- re-framing a local flux measurement or experiment into a system-scale budget, feedback, or generalizable biogeochemical mechanism
- choosing between GBC, soil-biology-and-biochemistry, and water-resources-research
- GBC's quantitative system-scale bar and AGU FAIR data-deposition expectations
- Carbon cycle: land and ocean carbon uptake, storage, and exchange; atmospheric CO2/CH4 budgets and their drivers
- Nutrient and element cycles: nitrogen, phosphorus, iron, silicon, sulfur, and trace elements, and their coupling to carbon
- Land–atmosphere and ocean–atmosphere biogeochemical exchange, including greenhouse-gas and reactive-gas fluxes
- Marine biogeochemistry: productivity, export, remineralization, and ocean biogeochemical–physical coupling
When not to use
- site-level process measurement of interest mainly to one community
- descriptive local incubation
- single-station time series
- ecological/soil study with no implication for an element budget or earth-system feedback
- site-level flux measurement or incubation with no system-scale budget or feedback implication
