"Marine Geochemistry" offers a fully comprehensive and integrated
treatment of the chemistry of the oceans, their sediments and
biota. The first edition of the book received strong critical
acclaim and was described as '"a standard text for years to come."'
This third edition of "Marine Geochemistry" has been written at a
time when the role of the oceans in the Earth System is becoming
increasingly apparent.
Following the successful format adopted previously, this new
edition treats the oceans as a unified entity, and addresses the
question '"how do the oceans work as a chemical system?"' To
address this question, the text has been updated to cover recent
advances in our understanding of topics such as the carbon
chemistry of the oceans, nutrient cycling and its effect on marine
chemistry, the acidification of sea water, and the role of the
oceans in climate change. In addition, the importance of shelf seas
in oceanic cycles has been re-evaluated in the light of new
research.
"Marine Geochemistry" offers both undergraduate and graduate
students and research workers an integrated approach to one of the
most important reservoirs in the Earth System.Additional resources
