About
RockRecord focuses on how rocks and minerals preserve the history of Earth and other planetary bodies. It explores how geochemical analysis and field observations reveal past environments, climate changes, and biological evolution.
Combining mineralogy, petrology, and geochemistry, RockRecord explains how different rock types form and what they reveal about geological processes. It shows how planetary geology helps us understand Earth in the context of other worlds.
Readers gain appreciation for how geological detective work reconstructs Earth's history and reveals the processes operating on planetary scales. Each article demonstrates how rocks and minerals are archives of planetary evolution.
