Layered Intrusions, December 2017, Vol. 13, No. 6
$20.00
For more than 50 years, layered mafic-ultramafic intrusions have served as natural laboratories for studying magma chamber processes and magmatic differentiation. Further enhancing our understanding of layered intrusion formation will yield valuable insights into the solidification of magmatic systems, the formation of precious metal deposits, and the timescales over which substantial crust-forming episodes occur.

For more than 50 years, layered mafic-ultramafic intrusions have served as natural laboratories for studying magma chamber processes and magmatic differentiation. Further enhancing our understanding of layered intrusion formation will yield valuable insights into the solidification of magmatic systems, the formation of precious metal deposits, and the timescales over which substantial crust-forming episodes occur. The aims of this issue of Elements are to offer an overview of the state-of-the-art in the petrology of layered intrusions today and a look forward to the future challenges in the field.

Phosphates And Global Sustainability, April 2008, Vol. 4, No. 2
$20.00Phosphorus is a unique element: it is essential to the existence of all living forms, and as such controls biological productivity in many terrestrial and marine environments; but when in excess, it leads to uncontrollable biological growth and water-quality problems. This has become a common environmental issue, resulting from our careless use of phosphorus in agriculture, yet phosphate ore deposits, from which fertilizers are produced, are a finite natural resource.

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.
