OverviewAn Introduction to Marine Biogeochemistry focuses on the ocean's role in the biogeochemical cycling of selected elements and the impact of humans on the cycling of these elements. Among the topics covered are the chemical composition of seawater from the perspectives of elemental speciation and the impacts of solutes on water's physical behavior; biogeochemical phenomena which control accumulation and preservation of marine sediments; marine chemistry of radioactive and stable isotopes; and seawater pollution. The book contains many examples as well as steady-state models to aid readers in understanding this growing and complex science.. *The focus of Introduction to Marine Biogeochemistry is the concept of the ocean as a system, linking land and atmospheric processes.*The text integrates the most current research, allowing students to learn concepts in context*Includes detailed coverage of computational aspects*Offers an online companion site, including a full study guide, available for students Full Product DetailsAuthor: Susan LibesPublisher: Academic Press Imprint: Academic Press Edition: 2nd ISBN: 9781282287075ISBN 10: 1282287079 Pages: 909 Publication Date: 01 January 2011 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Electronic book text Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
