Carbon is one of the most important elements on Earth. It is the basis of all life on the planet, is stored and mobilized throughout the Earth from core to crust, and is the basis of the energy sources that are so important to human civilization.
Catastrophic Pertubations To Earth’s Deep Carbon Cycle
October 2019, Vol. 15, No. 5
Carbon is one of the most important elements on Earth. It is the basis of all life on the planet, is stored and mobilized throughout the Earth from core to crust, and is the basis of the energy sources that are so important to human civilization. This issue explores the origins of carbon on Earth; the long-term carbon cycle; catastrophic and large-scale perturbations to Earth’s carbon cycle such as large igneous provinces and bolide impacts; carbon’s role in mass extinctions; and icehouse–greenhouse climate transitions in deep time. Deciphering the complex, and often faint, signals of distant carbon catastrophes requires a multidisciplinary effort and the most innovative analytical technology. This thematic collection comes at an important time in which carbon fluxes on Earth are changing rapidly. Society must understand the way in which the deep carbon-cycle on Earth works to secure a sustainable future.

Fluids in Planetary Systems, January 2005, Vol. 1, No. 1
$20.00Water and other geofluids play an important role in the geochemical and rheological evolution of the Earth and other bodies in the solar system. These fluids are responsible for the formation of hydrothermal mineral deposits, affect eruption behavior in volcanic systems and the geophysical properties of the mantle, and significantly affect the way in which rocks deform and fracture.

The Nuclear Fuel Cycle – Environmental Aspects, December 2006, Vol. 2, No. 6
$20.00Increasing concerns for the effects of global warming that result from rising greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere have led to a reexamination, even enthusiasm, for nuclear power. Of all the current alternatives to fossil fuels, nuclear fission is the most important source of energy, accounting for 17 percent of the world’s electricity.
