The Critical Zone
October 2007, Vol. 3, No. 5
The Critical Zone (CZ) encompasses all fluid, mineral, gaseous, and biotic components from the outer envelope of vegetation down to the lower limit of groundwater. It supports much of life on Earth. Important, relevant societal challenges related to CZ science to be addressed in the next decade are: (1) what processes control fluxes of carbon, particulates, and other reactive gases into and from the CZ? (2) how do weathering processes in the CZ nourish ecosystems? (3) how do chemical and physical weathering processes shape the CZ? and (4) how do biogeochemical processes in the CZ govern long-term sustainability of water and soil resources?

Medical Mineralogy And Geochemistry, December 2007, Vol. 3, No. 6
$20.00Medical mineralogy and geochemistry is an emergent, highly interdisciplinary field concerned with both normal and pathological interactions between minerals or amorphous inorganic solids and biomolecules or cells within the human body, and the transport and fate of prions and protein toxins in the soil environment. Prior research has, appropriately, focused on the complex genetic and molecular biological aspects, but there is a growing recognition of the vital need for understanding the surface and bulk properties and reactivities, especially at the challenging nanoscale characteristic of biomacromolecules and biominerals.
