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.

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.
