Shedding Light On The European Alps
February 2021, Vol. 17, No. 1
The European Alps are one of the most studied orogens in the world. Research over last 30 years is forcing us to rethink our understanding of Alpine evolution: new concepts have emerged that question long-established paradigms. We provide a petrological, geochemical, and tectonic overview of the Alpine Orogeny, from rifting and spreading to subduction and collision and, finally, to post-collisional uplift and erosion. In this issue, we shed light on the current debates regarding the origins of (ultra)high-pressure metamorphism, the origins of syncollisional magmatism, and the evolution of rifting and ocean spreading. We also examine the consequences of the new interpretations on the dynamics of subduction and collision.

Glasses And Melts: Linking Geochemistry And Materials Science, October 2006, Vol. 2, No. 5
$20.00Geological interest in studying melts stems from early recognition that melts play a fundamental role in determining the physical and chemical behaviour of magmas and magmatic processes. However, due to the inherent difficulties associated with working at high temperatures, much of the geological research over the last 30 years has used quenched melts or glasses as proxies for melts themselves.
