Urban Geochemistry
December 2012, Vol. 8, No. 6
By 2030, about 60% of the human population will live in cities. Clearly, anthropogenic activities in urban environments affect geochemical cycles, water resources, and the health of ecosystems and humans globally. Past practices are still having biogeochemical impacts today, and in many cases remediation is needed. Both natural and manmade disasters greatly change the geochemistry of urban areas. Understanding past impacts can aid in future disaster planning. An increased awareness of the geochemical and mineralogical effects of urbanization on geochemical cycling will aid urban planners in the effort to make urban development sustainable.

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.
