The present volume is the second one in the Space Sciences Series of ISSI (Inter­ national Space Science Institute) and the October 1997 issue of Space Science Reviews. It contains the proceedings of the first workshop in the ISSI study project on "Source and Loss Processes of Magnetospheric Plasma", which was held at ISSI in Bern on October 1-5, 1996. The participants in the project, the project team, numbered at that time 51, of whom 45 participated in the workshop. The main tasks of the first workshop were to provide a basis for the further work by means of presentation and discussion of those 16 review papers which are pub­ lished in this volume and to prepare plans for the work of six working groups in the year up to the second workshop in October 1997. The ISSI study project on "Source and Loss Processes of Magnetospheric Plas­ ma" was selected by ISSI in December 1995 as the first in the solar-terrestrial physics field after consulting a number of groups of senior scientists represent­ ing the international space physics community at large. The undersigned, Bengt Hultqvist, is the project leader. A Core Group, consisting of two co-chairs for each of six working groups and four ex-officio members from the Space Science Com­ mittee of ISSI (H. Balsiger, A. Galeev, G. Haerendel, and D. Southwood), con­ vened at ISSI in March 1996.

La vie telle que nous la connaissons nécessite la présence d'eau liquide. La recherche spatiale a permis de mettre en évidence la présence d'eau à l'intérieur ou en surface de certains corps du système solaire. Ces mondes de notre système solaire sont-ils pour autant habitables ? Ou, autrement dit, les conditions nécessaires à la vie s'y retrouvent-elles, alors que ces planètes ne sont pas habitées ? S'y sont-elles retrouvées dans leur passé ? Aussi, au travers de cet ouvrage, nous interrogerons-nous sur les conditions nécessaires pour permettre à l'eau de rester liquide à la surface d'une planète. Nous démontrerons qu'au cours de l'histoire de la planète Mars, ces conditions ont bel et bien existé. Nous mettrons en évidence les circonstances qui ont entrainé la disparition de l'eau sous forme liquide à la surface de cette planète voisine de la Terre. Enfin, nous considérerons plus particulièrement combien la dynamique interne de la planète et les échanges entre les différents "réservoirs" sont importants pour le développement de la vie.

Geosphere-Biosphere Interactions and Climate brings together many of the world's leading environmental scientists to discuss the interaction between the geosphere/biosphere and climate. The volume arises from a working group of the prestigious Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme. The chapters give a state-of-the-art summary of our current understanding of the present climate and environment by understanding Earth's past, human influence on the climate, a description of climate and its relation to the Earth's surface, ocean, and atmosphere, and future predictions of climate variability. This volume will be invaluable for researchers and graduate students in climate studies who wish to gain a multidisciplinary perspective of our current understanding of the interaction between the geosphere/biosphere and climate.
