Mathematics concerned with geoscientific problems, i.e., Geomathematics, is becoming increasingly important, as first, modern high speed computers and satellite based techniques are entering more and more all geodisciplines and secondly a growing public concern about the future of our planet exists, its climate, its environment, and about an expected shortage of natural resources . Efficient strategies of protection against threats of a changing earth and the exceptional situation of getting terrestrial, airborne as well as spaceborne data of better and better quality explain the strong need of new mathematical structures, tools, and methods.GEM – The International Journal on Geomathematics publishes peer-reviewed mathematical papers that deal with (i) modelling of the system Earth (geosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere) (ii) analytic, algebraic, and operator-theoretic methods and (iii) computational and numerical analysis methods necessary for the mathematical treatment of geoscientifically relevant problems. Book reviews are welcome.

Interdisciplinary and cross-national in scope, Gender Issues includes political, economic, social and behavioral analyses with diverse perspectives and policy conclusions. In contrast to many other publications in this field, Gender Issues does not focus on women as an insular group: it broadens the perspective to include men’s issues, and the extensive effect of changing sex roles on gender relations. Gender Issues is dedicated to publishing basic and applied research on the relationships between men and women: on similarities and differences in socialization, personality, and behavior: and on the changing aspirations, roles, and status of women in industrial, urban societies as well as in developing nations. Gender Issues encourages contributions from scholars in all areas of the social sciences, as well as letters to the editor, and incisive reviews of important literature from all sides of the debate about gender relations.

Gene Therapy covers both the research and clinical applications of the new genetic therapy techniques currently being developed. Over the last decade, gene therapy protocols have entered clinical trials in increasing numbers and as they cover a wide spectrum of diseases, these studies promise to unite the diverse organ-based specialities into which modern medicine has become divided. Gene Therapy covers all aspects of gene therapy as applied to human disease, including: * novel technological developments for gene transfer, control and silencing * basic science studies of mechanisms of gene transfer and control of expression * preclinical animal model systems and validation studies * clinical trial reports which have significant impact for the field * gene-based vaccine development and applications * cell-based therapies including all aspects of stem cells and genetically modified cellular approaches.
