All sub disciplines in Organic Geochemistry (Petroleum
Geochemistry, Environmental Geochemistry etc.) are linked by the
basic analytical approaches used for identification and
quantitation of individual organic substances. Hence, a fundamental
prerequisite for organic geochemists is the knowledge not only
about the individual analytical techniques but more about their
potential as well as their limitations. In this issues basic
analytical procedures and techniques are introduced comprising
fundamental steps like sampling and sample storage, aspects of
sample treatment like extraction and fractionation procedures and
finally the specific techniques used for organic analyses on
partially very low concentration levels such as mass spectrometry
or infrared spectroscopy. Beside the technical aspects also
application on organic-geochemical problems and the standard data
evaluation practice is introduced. Finally, special chapters point
to analytical pitfalls and to principal standard operation
procedures. The intention of this issue is to get the readers
familiar with analytical Organic Geochemistry and to enable them to
assess the quality and suitability of specific analytical
approaches, in particular with respect to the organic-geochemical
problems.

The first volume in this new text book series covers
comprehensively relevant aspects related to the appearance and
characterisation of fossil matter in the geosphere such as kerogen,
oil, shales and coals. As organic geochemistry is a modern
scientific subject characterized by a high transdisciplinarity and
located at the edge of chemistry, environmental sciences, geology
and biology, there clearly is a need for a flexible offer of
appropriate academic teaching material on an undergraduat level
addressed to the variety of students coming originally from
different study disciplines. For such a flexible usage this
textbook series' consists of different volumes with clear defined
aspects and with manageable length.
This second volume in the series 'Fundamentals in Organic
Geochemistry' focusses on molecular chemical aspects introducing
the structural diversity of natural products, their fate in the
sedimentary systems and the consequences of the corresponding
alterations for geoscientific questions. Organic Geochemistry is a
modern scientific subject characterized by a high
transdisciplinarity and located at the edge of chemistry,
environmental sciences, geology and biology. Therefore, there is a
need for a flexible offer of appropriate academic teaching material
on an undergraduated level addressed to the variety of students
