Terræ is the journal of IG-UNICAMP dedicated to geological and geographical communities in Brazil and other countries. The goal of the publication is to promote original knowledge, creativity and innovation in Earth Sciences, Geography, and other related research areas of environmental sciences. As one among several editorial initiatives of the Institute of Geosciences of the University of Campinas, the publication is also dedicated to support Brazilian undergraduate and graduate courses in Geology and Geography.
