Volume 9 focuses on natural and anthropogenic environmental
contaminants and their implications for human health and the
environment. Environmental impacts on soils, groundwater,
freshwater, the oceans and atmosphere are examined in the context
of both inorganic geochemistry (metals, metalloids, radioactive
compounds, mineral dusts, dissolved salts, acidification) and
organic geochemistry (halogenated and non-halogenated hydrocarbons,
volatile organic compounds, fuel oxygenates, pesticides,
nutrients). Issues of risk, toxicity and exposure assessment;
contaminant fate and transport; remediation and disposal; and
source identification are examined in this context.
Reprinted individual volume from the acclaimed Treatise on
Geochemistry, (10 Volume Set, ISBN 0-08-043751-6, published in
2003)
