AGU publishes highly respected, peer-reviewed scientific journals, a member newspaper, and award-winning books. AGU publications cover research in the Earth and space sciences…on land, under the sea, and in the air…animal, rock, or mineral…from the fossils of the past to today's latest discoveries and into the future with forecast modeling.
Available in more than 148 countries and nearly 2200 institutions, AGU publications reach a global audience.
The Publications Committee is responsible for a continuing review of the publications program of AGU to assure that the various components are responsive to the current needs of users, and to anticipate and prepare for future needs.

Research Spotlight
Extraordinary uplift of Yellowstone caldera
A modeling study shows that an expanding magma reservoir below Yellowstone caldera contributed to a recent episode of extraordinary uplift. Heat flow from the magma reservoir also drives geysers, such as Yellowstone's Castle geyser, shown here.
