Come see the latest Earth Sciences books—and talk to the editors that published them. This is your chance—if you’re attending Chinese Geoscience Union—to talk one-on-one with Springer Nature editors, to look through and buy new and essential books, and more.
When you visit the Springer Nature booth, you can talk to some of the most experienced editors working in scholarly publishing. These experts can answer any questions you might have and can explain the ins and outs of today’s publishing landscape, including open access (OA), what’s involved in writing and publishing a book, and more.
And you can see the full range of Earth Sciences publications at Springer here. On these pages, you’ll find more detailed information about the books, journals, and services you’ll see highlighted especially for Chinese Geoscience Union.
Springer Nature’s leading imprints
Get answers from expert editors—here’s who you will meet at our booth
You’re attending Chinese Geoscience Union because you have results to share. But what’s the best way to reach the widest appropriate audience? The Springer Nature editors who are here can help answer that question. You can take the opportunity to meet with Dr. Annett, Lisa and Keyuan. If you haven’t written a book before, they can give you a quick introduction to the process. And if you have, they can show you how publishing a book with Springer would be different from other publishers. They can also help answer any questions you might have about Springer journals.

Open access
Serving the global research community with openness, rigor, quality, and transparency
Open access (OA) refers to the free, immediate, online availability of research outputs such as journal articles or books, combined with the rights to use these outputs fully in the digital environment. Publishing OA expands the reach of your research, fostering greater impact, visibility and usage of your work. Studies indicate that gold OA articles achieve significantly more downloads, citations, and Altmetric attention than non-OA articles.
You may be able to publish OA, with your fees covered, through one of Springer Nature’s many OA agreements. Alternatively, you can use our free OA funding and support service to find and apply for funding to cover your article processing charges (APCs) and/or book processing charges (BPCs).
Ultimately, serving the research community means research that’s open to all. And the only way to achieve full, immediate, and sustainable OA is by prioritising gold OA.
Below you’ll find a selection of OA journals and books that our editors have chosen as of particular interest for Chinese Geoscience Union.
