Abstract

In this editorial, we highlight the ongoing role of Scottish landscapes and landforms in pushing the frontiers of physical geography research, with particular to the contributions in the Scottish Geographical Journal (previously Scottish Geographical Magazine) since its inception in the 1880s. We outline some important avenues of research during the journal’s lifetime and place them in the context of future challenges that Scotland and the world face, environmentally, economically and societally. Attention is also particularly paid to the Scottish Landform Examples (SLaX) series and to its continuation under the new editorial team. We invite new physical geography research contributions to the journal ‘in, of or from Scotland’ and its globally important landscapes.
