Nanotechnologies in Russia (Rossiiskie Nanotekhnologii) focuses on publication of the interdisciplinary articles devoted to basic issues of the structure and properties of nanoscale objects and nanomaterials, technologies of their production and processing as well as practical implementation of the devices and facilities on their basis. The journal publishes original articles meeting the highest scientific criteria that cover research in the following areas of science and technology: self-organizing structures and nanoassemblages, nanostructures including nanotubes, functional nanomaterials, structural nanomaterials, devices and facilities on the basis of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies, metrology, standardization, and testing in nanotechnologies, nanophotonics, nanobiology.

Im Mittelpunkt der Zeitschrift Natur und Recht steht das gesamte Recht des ökologischen Natur- und Umweltschutzes. Darüber hinaus wird auch das Recht behandelt, das der Natur zusetzt: Dies sind vor allem das Bau- und Fachplanungsrecht. Auch das Immissionsschutz-, Abfall-, Wasser-, Bodenschutz- und Landesplanungsrecht gehören zum Themenspektrum der Natur und Recht, ebenso wie das umweltrelevante Jagd-, Fischerei-, Forst- und Landwirtschaftsrecht. Schließlich finden das Tierschutz- und Denkmalschutzrecht eine Plattform., .

Natural Computing refers to computational processes observed in nature, and human-designed computing inspired by nature. When complex natural phenomena are analyzed in terms of computational processes, our understanding of both nature and the essence of computation is enhanced. Characteristic for human-designed computing inspired by nature is the metaphorical use of concepts, principles and mechanisms underlying natural systems. Natural computing includes evolutionary algorithms, neural networks, molecular computing and quantum computing. The journal Natural Computing provides a forum for discovery in natural computing, offering links among researchers and insight into trends in an emerging specialty. The journal reports on theory, experiments, and applications, and covers natural computing from a very broad perspective, including use of algorithms to consider evolution as a computational process, and neural networks in light of computational trends in brain research. Now indexed in ISI.

Natural Hazards is devoted to original research work on all aspects of natural hazards, including the forecasting of catastrophic events, risk management, and the nature of precursors of natural and technological hazards.
Although hazards can originate in different sources and systems, such as atmospheric, hydrologic, oceanographic, volcanologic, seismic, neotectonic, the environmental impacts are equally catastrophic. This warrants a close interaction between different scientific and operational disciplines, aimed at enhancing the mitigation of hazards.
Coverage includes such categories of hazard as atmospheric, climatological, oceanographic, storm surges, tsunamis, floods, snow, avalanches, landslides, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, man-made and technological, as well as risk assessment.

This journal is devoted to semantics and its interfaces in grammar, especially syntax. It encourages the convergence of approaches employing the concepts of logic and philosophy with perspectives of generative grammar on the relations between meaning and structure. Natural Language Semantics publishes studies focused on linguistic phenomena, including quantification, negation, modality, genericity, tense, aspect, aktionsarten, focus, presuppositions, anaphora, definiteness, plurals, mass nouns, adjectives, adverbial modification, nominalization, ellipsis, and interrogatives. The journal features mainly research articles, but also short squibs as well as remarks on and replies to pertinent books and articles.

Natural Language & Linguistic Theory provides a forum for the discussion of theoretical research that pays close attention to natural language data, offering a channel of communication between researchers of a variety of points of view. The journal actively seeks to bridge the gap between descriptive work and work of a highly theoretical, less empirically oriented nature. In attempting to strike this balance, the journal presents work that makes complex language data accessible to those unfamiliar with the language area being studied and work that makes complex theoretical positions more accessible to those working outside the theoretical framework under review. Natural Language & Linguistic Theory features: generative studies on the syntax, semantics, phonology and the lexicon of natural language surveys of recent theoretical developments that facilitate accessibility for a graduate student readership reactions/replies to recent papers book reviews of important linguistics titles special topic issu

Natural Resources Research (NRR) is one of three journals sponsored by the International Association for Mathematical Geology (IAMG) and is co-sponsored by the Energy Mineral Division of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG/EMD). NRR publishes quantitative geoscientific studies reporting on the search for and development of natural resources, including their associated environmental, economical, and risk-related aspects. Reports regarding petroleum or energy-mineral resources are of interest, as are investigations on the exploitation of any metallic or non-metallic resource. Example studies include the use of geoscientific data or analyses to assess measurement or sampling methods compare exploitation strategies evaluate policies regarding site development, use, and remediation identify important factors for economic and/or technical success test statistical or deterministic models for the exploration, assessment, and/or development of resources containing coal clean coal, decarbonized energy, and hydrogen conventional oil and gas under any recovery process copper uranium geothermal gypsum precious stones unconventional oil or gas, including gas hydrates, heavy oil, coalbed methane, and oil shale vegetation water carbon dioxide production or sequestration Case studies are particularly welcome. Papers submitted must be original and not under consideration for publication elsewhere: all papers are peer-reviewed.Natural Resources Research is an official journal of the IAMG and AAPG/EMD and members should direct subscription information and changes of a, ddress to IAMG Office, 4 Cataraqui St., Suite 310, Kingston ON K7K 1Z7 Canada.

Nature is a weekly international journal publishing the finest peer-reviewed research in all fields of science and technology on the basis of its originality, importance, interdisciplinary interest, timeliness, accessibility, elegance and surprising conclusions. Nature also provides rapid, authoritative, insightful and arresting news and interpretation of topical and coming trends affecting science, scientists and the wider public.

Nature Astronomy is a new online-only journal, publishing monthly from January 2017. Nature Astronomy is a truly multidisciplinary journal for the field, representing and fostering closer interaction between all of the key astronomy relevant disciplines, by publishing the most significant research, review and comment at the cutting edge of astronomy, astrophysics and planetary science.

Launched in January 2017, Nature Biomedical Engineering publishes original research, reviews and commentary of high significance to the biomedical engineering community, including bench scientists interested in devising materials, methods, technologies or therapies to understand or combat disease; engineers designing or optimizing medical devices and procedures; and clinicians leveraging research outputs in biomedical engineering to assess patient health or deliver therapy across a variety of clinical settings and healthcare contexts.

Like all Nature-branded journals, Nature Biomedical Engineering is run by a dedicated team of professional editors, and provides fair and rigorous peer review, high standards of copy-editing and production, swift publication and editorial independence.
