摘要：“Solid Earth Sciences” is a peer-reviewed open-access
journal, publishing research papers on a wide range of subjects
in Earth sciences, including 1) geodynamics involved in the
physical and chemical evolution of Earth; 2) petrologic pro-
cesses in igneous to sedimentary and metamorphic rocks; 3)
present and past environments relating to the habitable Earth;
4) tectonic processes in the crust and upper mantle, including
structural geology to plate tectonics; 5) geochemical behaviors
of elements under various conditions and their implications for
mineralization and other geological processes; 6) high tem-
perature and high pressure experiments that address chemical
and/or physical properties of Earth materials; and 7) new
methods, new ideas, and new models that help us to better
understand Earth itself as a dynamic system.
