Aims & Scope

Polar and Cold Regions Research(PCRR) is a peer-reviewed open-access journal dedicated to advancing research on marine technologies in polar and cold regions. We publish cutting-edge studies on ship engineering, offshore infrastructure, and ice-capable systems, with a focus on sustainability, safety, and operational efficiency under extreme cold conditions. The journal serves as a platform for academia and industry to address climate-driven challenges in polar development.


Topics of interest to the journal include, but are not limited to:

  • Glaciology and Cryospheric
  • Oceanography and Sea Ice
  • Polar Ecology
  • Cold and Arid Regions Sciences
  • Atmospheric and Climate Sciences
  • Geological Evolution
  • Ice-Class Vessel Design
  • Arctic Route
