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.

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.

Early Earth, August 2006, Vol. 2, No. 4
$20.00The earliest Earth was a strange inhospitable world, yet transitions occurred culminating in the evolution of life within the first billion years. The preservation of a sparse and ambiguous rock record has encouraged debate.

Zircon – Tiny But Timely, February 2007, Vol. 3, No. 1
$20.00Where would Earth science be without zircon? As Earth’s timekeeper, zircon has proven to be a remarkable and versatile mineral, providing insights into deep time and ancient Earth processes. However, there is still much to learn about Earth’s history from zircon and its behaviour.
