Mountain Research and Development (MRD) An international, peer-reviewed open access journal published by the International Mountain Society (IMS) www.mrd-journal.org
As the author dissects their anatomy, he examines the geological processes involved in shaping them, from youth to maturity. Their development is considered within the context of the whole Earth system and the overarching model of plate tectonics—key concepts that underpin the discipline of geology and that are summarized in one of the early chapters
Summary
BioOne sees sustainable scholarly publishing as an inherently collaborative enterprise connecting authors, nonprofit publishers, academic institutions, research libraries, and research funders in the common goal of maximizing access to critical research. It presents a detailed snapshot of our current geological knowledge of the world’s mountain belts.
