Studies of Archean cratons, and the rocks and minerals they contain, help us understand the processes that occurred on the early Earth, our place in the Solar System, and how the planet we live on today came to be. The articles in this issue examine different aspects of early Earth evolution from multiple perspectives relying on both theory and observation. We hope they will encourage you to investigate further this most fascinating time in Earth history. Here we introduce the basic characteristics of cratons, the challenges of inferring Earth evolution from the sparse Archean rock record, the concept of cratonic clans, the development of supercratons, and, by the end of the Archean, continents, supercontinents, and plate tectonics.
期刊介绍:
Elements is an international magazine of mineralogy, petrology, and geochemistry.
Published bimonthly, every issue explores a theme of broad and current interest. Elements publishes invited peer-reviewed articles for each thematic collection of papers. Topics of interest can be proposed to the editors who will review every proposal submitted.
Elements also presents regular features including a opinion articles, calendar of events, short course announcements, awards, conference reports, policy news, as well as news of the 18 participating societies.
