Aims
The Journal of Applied Researches in Geographical Sciences (JARGS) aims to advance knowledge and understanding in the field of geographical sciences through a variety of research contributions. The specific aims of JARGS include:
- Promoting Interdisciplinary Research: JARGS encourages studies that integrate various aspects of geography, including physical geography, human geography, and environmental science. This interdisciplinary approach aims to address complex geographical issues through diverse methodologies.
- Enhancing Geospatial Knowledge: The journal seeks to publish research that improves the understanding of geospatial phenomena and their implications for society. This includes studies on urban planning, environmental sustainability, and resource management.
- Fostering Practical Applications: JARGS emphasizes applied research that can inform policy-making and practical solutions to geographical challenges. This includes work that explores the impacts of climate change, urbanization, and land use changes on communities and ecosystems.
- Supporting Regional Studies: The journal focuses on regional case studies, particularly those relevant to the geographical context of Iran and surrounding areas. This regional focus aims to contribute to local knowledge while also offering insights applicable to broader contexts.
- Encouraging Innovative Methodologies: JARGS welcomes research that employs novel methodologies or technologies in geographical research, including remote sensing, GIS (Geographic Information Systems), and statistical modeling.
Overall, JARGS is dedicated to publishing high-quality research that not only contributes to academic discourse but also serves practical needs in geographical sciences.
