Recent advances have been made in high-resolution in situ methods to image mineral growth patterns, analyse compositional and isotopic zonation, and improve our ability to visualize, study, and model rock textures in three dimensions. These advances provide a significant step forward in the understanding of how rocks form and the history they can tell us.
Frontiers In Textural And Microgeochemical Analysis
August 2007, Vol. 3, No. 4
Recent advances have been made in high-resolution in situ methods to image mineral growth patterns, analyse compositional and isotopic zonation, and improve our ability to visualize, study, and model rock textures in three dimensions. These advances provide a significant step forward in the understanding of how rocks form and the history they can tell us. Computer-aided reconstructions and 3D modelling of textures, advanced models of crystallisation and very high-resolution sampling of within-crystal geochemical variations are at the frontiers of current studies in igneous petrology. This thematic issue highlights the integration of textural and geochemical information as a powerful tool in the understanding of igneous rocks, and provides examples that researchers in other disciplines may use to further advance their studies.

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.
