Terra Nova publishes short, innovative and provocative
papers of interest to a wide readership and covering the broadest
spectrum of the Solid Earth and Planetary Sciences. Terra
Nova encompasses geology, geophysics and geochemistry, and
extends to the fluid envelopes (atmosphere, ocean, environment)
whenever coupling with the Solid Earth is involved. Papers that are
of interest to Terra Nova readers will usually expose new
general principles and understanding or challenge conventional
wisdom.
