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.

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.

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.

Supervolcanoes, February 2008, Vol. 4, No. 1
$20.00Explosive super-eruptions from large volume, shallow magma systems lead to enormous and devastating pyroclastic flows, the formation of gigantic collapse calderas, and deposition of volcanic ash over continent-sized areas. Recognition that future eruptions from these “supervolcanoes” will undoubtedly have severe impacts on society—and perhaps on life itself—has led to recent public and media interest.

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.
