The Delivery of Water to Protoplanets, Planets and Satellites

Participating journal: Space Science Reviews

Liquid water is essential for the emergence of life at least as we know it on Earth. Written by recognized experts in the field, this collection provides a complete inventory of water throughout the Solar System and a comprehensive overview of the evolution of water from the interstellar medium to the final planetesimals and planets. The papers take an interdisciplinary approach to habitability, addressing it from the perspectives of astronomy, planetary science, geochemistry, geophysics and biology.

This collection presents results from the ISSI Workhop "The Delivery of Water to Proto-planets, Planets and Satellites", held 11–15 January 2016.
