Volcanoes have played a large role over Earth’s history in building the crust, contributing to atmospheric formation, and transferring heat and mass from the interior to the surface. They are also capable of massive disruption of the surface environment and to human civilizations.
Volcanoes: From Mantle To Surface
February 2017, Vol. 13, No. 1
Volcanoes have played a large role over Earth’s history in building the crust, contributing to atmospheric formation, and transferring heat and mass from the interior to the surface. They are also capable of massive disruption of the surface environment and to human civilizations. Volcanoes themselves are the products of crustal-scale systems. But what controls whether a given magma will erupt or stall, and how do processes in one part of the system affect others? Volcano science is advancing rapidly, and improvements in monitoring tools, petrologic tools, and modeling of volcanic processes have greatly improved our understanding of volcanic behavior. This issue brings together contributions exploring volcanic behavior throughout the crustal system.

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.

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.
