The Journal of Metamorphic Geology is a peer-reviewed journal publishing metamorphic, geochemistry, and geophysics research from the scale of the individual crystal to that of lithospheric plates.

Through our diverse scope, we publish multidisciplinary research relating to every area of Metamorphic Geology. We publish broad topics from regional studies of metamorphic terranes to microstructural and deformation studies in relation to metamorphism, geochronology and geochemistry in metamorphic systems.
