prod said:Entirely unreferenced, little assertion of notability, looks like one more university publication. Can't find a thing for secondary sources on this.

However, this is a long-established peer reviewed scientific journal, indexed in all the standard indexing service (which are the usual secondary sources for peer reviewed journals). 8000 is a very high circulation for a scholarly journal--the average is 1000-1500. All of this was trivial to find on the web. All established peer-reviewed scientific journals published by scholarly publishers, (including scholarly commercial publishers, academic societies, and universities) that are indexed in the literature services for their field, are notable, and are accepted as Reliable Sources in WP. There are about 2000 in WP now; there are another 6 or 7 thousand currently published ones of national or international significance, and articles for all of them are planned, though it will take 2 or 3 years. After that, plans are to start in on the 20,000 or so earlier ones, and start considering the smaller journals that are nonetheless indexed somewhere, if there's any energy left. (see WP:List of missing journals, helped by all the science and academic article editors adding references that cite these journals. ) DGG 04:27, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Glad to discuss further if they are questions
