Mercury is unique amongst terrestrial planets because of its very high metal/ silicate ratio. The NASA MESSENGER mission ended in 2015 and significantly advanced our understanding of the deep structure of the planet as well as our comprehension of Mercury’s volcanic history and crust formation.
Planet Mercury
February 2019, Vol. 15, No. 1
Mercury is unique amongst terrestrial planets because of its very high metal/ silicate ratio. The NASA MESSENGER mission ended in 2015 and significantly advanced our understanding of the deep structure of the planet as well as our comprehension of Mercury’s volcanic history and crust formation. The European Space Agency (ESA) is now ready for the launch of the BepiColombo mission that will take place at the end of 2018. The “Planet Mercury” issue summarizes the latest developments in light of MESSENGER data and perspectives for the BepiColombo mission on internal structures and surface processes, based on insights from geophysics, geochemistry, igneous and experimental petrology and volcanology.

Phosphates And Global Sustainability, April 2008, Vol. 4, No. 2
$20.00Phosphorus is a unique element: it is essential to the existence of all living forms, and as such controls biological productivity in many terrestrial and marine environments; but when in excess, it leads to uncontrollable biological growth and water-quality problems. This has become a common environmental issue, resulting from our careless use of phosphorus in agriculture, yet phosphate ore deposits, from which fertilizers are produced, are a finite natural resource.

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.
