As we discover more about the role of the ocean in global changes
and identify the effects of global change on the ocean,
understanding its chemical composition and processes becomes
increasingly paramount. However, understanding these processes
requires a wide range of measurements in the vast ocean, from the
sea surface to deep-ocean trenches, from the tropics to the poles.
Practical Guidelines for the Analysis of Seawater provides a common
analytical basis for generating quality-assured and reliable data
on chemical parameters in the ocean. A source of practical
know-how, the book covers sampling and storage, analytical
methodology, and guidelines and procedures for quality assurance.
It presents analytical methods with the step-by-step procedures
that help practitioners implement these methods successfully into
the laboratory, making them instantly applicable without consulting
further literature. The book also contains essential information
for developing or improving quality control and quality assurance
programs in the laboratory. It includes the availability and
measurement of standard reference materials, blank estimation and
correction, control of recoveries, and statistical evaluation of
quality assurance data. Analytical chemistry is a very active and
fast moving area. Despite the development of innovative new
analytical techniques for chemical trace element research,
obtaining reliable data at ultra-trace levels remains a formidable
challenge. A complete and practical guide, this book delineates
proven methods that consistently yield reproducible data in routine
work.
