Origins Of Life: Transition From Geochemistry To Biogeochemistry, December 2016, Vol. 12, No. 6
$20.00
How life originated is one of the most important, and longstanding, questions that humans have attempted to answer, as reflected in our mythologies, religions, philosophy, and science. Furthermore, our understanding of the emergence of life on Earth could potentially contribute to the search for life in other parts of the Solar System and the rest of the Universe.
Origins Of Life: Transition From Geochemistry To Biogeochemistry
December 2016, Vol. 12, No. 6
How life originated is one of the most important, and longstanding, questions that humans have attempted to answer, as reflected in our mythologies, religions, philosophy, and science. Furthermore, our understanding of the emergence of life on Earth could potentially contribute to the search for life in other parts of the Solar System and the rest of the Universe. The objective of our thematic issue is to highlight the potential role of minerals and the critical importance of using relevant conditions, plausible on early Earth, for designing experiments to model the emergence and early evolution of life. We believe that this approach is essential to bridging the gap in the field between biochemists/organic chemists, on the one hand, and geochemists/mineralogists, on the other.

$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.

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.
