Space Science Reviews
Space Science Reviews is a key international journal synthesizing various branches of space research.
This collection takes an interdisciplinary approach to the evolution of terrestrial planets, addressing the topic from the perspectives of planetary sciences, geochemistry, geophysics and biology, and solar and astrophysics.
The review articles analyze the chemical, isotopic and elemental evolution of the early Solar System, with specific emphasis on Venus, Earth, and Mars. They discuss how these factors contribute to our understanding of accretion timescales, volatile delivery, the origin of the Moon and the evolution of atmospheres and water inventories of terrestrial planets. Also explored are plate tectonic formation, the origin of nitrogen atmospheres, and the prospects for exoplanet habitability. The papers are forward-looking as well, considering the importance of future space missions for understanding terrestrial planet evolution in the Solar System and beyond.
This collection is based on results from the ISSI Workhop "Reading Terrestrial Planet Evolution in Isotopes and Element Measurements", held 22–26 October 2018.
