Produktinformationen zu „Marine Geochemistry (ePub)“
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.

Autoren-Porträt von Roy Chester, Tim D. Jickells
Roy Chester recently retired from his post as theProudman Professor of Oceanography in what was then the Department
of Earth Sciences at the University of Liverpool. During his career
he wrote over 140 scientific publications, and in 1999 was awarded
the Hans Pettersson Bronze Medal by the Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences. He is also the author of 'Furnace of Creation,
Cradle of Destruction - A journey to the birthplace of Earthquakes,
Volcanoes and Tsunamis'.
Tim Jickells is a marine biogeochemist with over 150
publications. He has been based at the University of East Anglia
for more than 25 years and before that worked in Bermuda and
Scotland. His main research interests are in atmospheric inputs to
the oceans and coastal nutrient cycling and his field work has
included tropical, temperate and polar environments. He was awarded
the Challenger medal in 2006.
