Deep Earth And Mineral Physics
June 2008, Vol. 4, No. 3
The field of high-pressure mineral physics is central to our understanding of the Earth’s interior and its evolution. It is also a field that is rapidly advancing. Recent major discoveries, such as the post-perovskite phase transition that may explain some of the properties of the core–mantle boundary, speak to the continued importance of high-pressure mineral physics experiments. The results from experimental mineral physics along with seismological data are used to construct compositional and thermal models of the Earth and its heterogeneity, including inferences of deep geochemical reservoirs. These results are also key to understanding all planetary bodies in the solar system. This issue of Elements highlights several key areas of high-pressure mineral physics in a form that is accessible to a broad mineralogical audience.

$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.
