The characterization of the organic matter is of great importance in Earth Sciences and requires an understanding of several processes, from sedimentological to geochemical and physical. The integration of organic petrological and organic geochemical data is an asset in the organic matter study, since it contributes, for example, to the identification of the type of organic matter, to assess depositional environments and to recognize incarbonization\/maturation processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">This Special Issue will focus on the characterization of organic matter in sediments and sedimentary rocks, for a better understanding of its origin, preservation, thermal evolution, and depositional environment. Contributions may embrace a broad spectrum of techniques applied to organic matter, both petrographic and geochemical. Studies that illustrate the relationships between organic and inorganic fractions are also welcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">We thank you and look forward to receiving your contributions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Dr. Paula Alexandra Gon\u00e7alves<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Dr. Carolina Fonseca<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Guest Editors<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Manuscript Submission Information<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website.
