Large Igneous Provinces: Versatile Drivers Of Global Change, October 2023, Vol. 19, No. 5
$20.00
Earth’s history is punctuated by volcanic episodes at a scale never witnessed by humans, known as large igneous provinces (LIPs). These extraordinary volcanic and tectonic events are associated with profound changes to planet Earth, including its climate and habitability.

Diamonds, March 2005, Vol. 1, No. 2
$20.00Diamond, the fascinating ultrahard mineral, is the focus of considerable interest and scientific research. Recent advances particularly relevant to geoscientists include: diamond as a recorder of Earth processes from the perspective of inclusions, chemistry, and conditions of formation; synthesis for research applications and processing to modify color and physical properties, important to diamond gems and anvils; the implications of nanodiamonds from meteorites.

Arsenic, April 2006, Vol. 2, No. 2
$20.00Arsenic is an element known throughout history as a classic poison. Currently, very small but highly significant concentrations of this element in drinking water supplies are causing massive health problems to many millions of people in some of the world’s poorest nations, and more localised sources related to mining and processing are also a concern.

Medical Mineralogy And Geochemistry, December 2007, Vol. 3, No. 6
$20.00Medical mineralogy and geochemistry is an emergent, highly interdisciplinary field concerned with both normal and pathological interactions between minerals or amorphous inorganic solids and biomolecules or cells within the human body, and the transport and fate of prions and protein toxins in the soil environment. Prior research has, appropriately, focused on the complex genetic and molecular biological aspects, but there is a growing recognition of the vital need for understanding the surface and bulk properties and reactivities, especially at the challenging nanoscale characteristic of biomacromolecules and biominerals.
