Earth and Planetary Science Letters (EPSL), with an impact of 4.279, is a distinguished journal reporting note-worthy achievements in earth sciences research. Submitting your work to EPSL for publication is probably a dream to many scientific staff, and how to do that thus featured a talk given by Prof. Mark Harrison, its editor-in-chief, at ITP Beijing campus on May 23, 2012.

Prof Harrison was invited by ITP Prof. DING Lin for possible cooperation in the future. An important message he brought was the intension of EPSL to increase the publication and editing of scientific papers contributed by Chinese scientists.

Also interested in the plateau uplift, Prof. Harrison exchanged notes with ITP scientists on the study of Tibetan Plateau uplift. Further cooperation in this aspect was expected to follow along.
