Water In Planetary Bodies, June 2022, Vol. 18, No. 3
$20.00
Despite being a simple molecule, water has played a key role in shaping the Solar System from the formation of early solids to the processes of planetary and moon formation. Through its astrophysical cycle, water has driven the evolution of protoplanetary disks, which, in turn, has affected the water budget of terrestrial planets and, therefore, their geological activities and habitability.
Water In Planetary Bodies
June 2022, Vol. 18, No. 3
Despite being a simple molecule, water has played a key role in shaping the Solar System from the formation of early solids to the processes of planetary and moon formation. Through its astrophysical cycle, water has driven the evolution of protoplanetary disks, which, in turn, has affected the water budget of terrestrial planets and, therefore, their geological activities and habitability. Understanding water’s role in diverse natural processes requires expertise in astrophysics, geophysics, and geochemistry. This issue of Elements will introduce the different environments and processes where water is of fundamental importance, as well as its past and present distribution within the Solar System and how this peculiar molecule affects astrophysical and geological processes.

The Nuclear Fuel Cycle – Environmental Aspects, December 2006, Vol. 2, No. 6
$20.00Increasing concerns for the effects of global warming that result from rising greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere have led to a reexamination, even enthusiasm, for nuclear power. Of all the current alternatives to fossil fuels, nuclear fission is the most important source of energy, accounting for 17 percent of the world’s electricity.

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.

Medical Mineralogy And Geochemistry, December 2007, Vol. 3, No. 6
$20.00Medical mineralogy and geochemistry is an emergent, highly interdisciplinary field concerned with both normal and pathological interactions between minerals or amorphous inorganic solids and biomolecules or cells within the human body, and the transport and fate of prions and protein toxins in the soil environment. Prior research has, appropriately, focused on the complex genetic and molecular biological aspects, but there is a growing recognition of the vital need for understanding the surface and bulk properties and reactivities, especially at the challenging nanoscale characteristic of biomacromolecules and biominerals.
