The cover illustrates the global aspect of carbon capture and seques-
tration. The jar contains a molecular view of the metal organic frame-
work (MOF) MG-MOF-74, which is studied by many groups for
carbon capture. Cover designed by Wayne Keefe (wkeefe@mac.com),
based on the research by A. Dzubak, L.-C. Lin, J. Kim, J.A. Swisher,
R. Poloni, S.N. Maximoff, B. Smit, and L. Gagliardi, 2012 . Ab-initio
carbon capture in open-site metal organic frameworks. Nat. Chem., 4,
810-816 .
The half title page gives an illustration of the Metal Organic Framework
Mg-MOF-74 in which CO 2 molecules are adsorbed. Image prepared
by Li-Chiang Lin and Roberta Poloni .
