Suggested Readings List

These articles and readings were suggested by leaders and participants at the workshop as being useful either for students to read directly or as reference material for teaching about hydrogeology, soils, and low-temperature geochemistry.

Elements

Every issue of Elements contains peer-reviewed articles that explore a theme of broad and current interest in the mineral sciences. The articles are well-referenced, well-written. With some preparation and guidance, students find these articles accessible, particularly in courses for majors.
