February 2012, Vol. 8, No. 1
Impact processes are central to the formation and evolution of the Solar System and the modification of planetary surfaces. On Earth, asteroid impacts played a critical role during Earth history; they delivered the constituents of our planet, were responsible for the formation of major ore deposits, and affected life on Earth. Studying impacts and their effects is a very active field at the crossroads of many scientific disciplines, from mineralogy to environmental science. This issue focuses on the mineralogical, geochemical, and petrological aspects of terrestrial impact structures, and in particular on the latest developments in the relevant fields.
