Aims and scope

The Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences (APJAS) is co-published by the Korean Meteorological Society (KMS) and Springer in February, May, August and November. The APJAS publishes original scientific research in all the fields of atmospheric sciences, with emphasis on but not limited to theoretical/observational/numerical studies on meteorological, climatological, and atmospheric environmental issues in the Asia-Pacific region. In addition to original articles, the APJAS publishes comprehensive reviews on topical subjects, and brief research notes and communications of preliminary results. It has started from 2008 by succeeding the KMS' former journal, the Journal of the Korean Meteorological Society (JKMS), which published a total of 47 volumes as of 2011, in its time-honored tradition since 1965.
