Comptes Rendus Géoscience is a peer-reviewed electronic journal, whose objective is to allow researchers to quickly make their work known to the international scientific community. It is one of the seven journals published by the Académie des sciences, heir to the Comptes Rendus des Séances hebdomadaires de l'Académie des Sciences founded in 1835 by Arago.

Comptes Rendus Géoscience covers all areas of the Earth Sciences: solid earth, continental surfaces and waters, ocean/climate/atmosphere, science and society and all their sub-areas (see the detailed list). They mainly publish original research articles, but also review articles, historical perspectives, pedagogical texts or conference proceedings, with no limit in length and in a format as flexible as necessary (figures, associated data, etc.). Articles are published in English or French.
