| Résumé : |
This book treats the broad range of aspects of marine chemistry for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, but even seasoned researchers will find it a valuable resource. The inclusion of a historical perspective throughout the book is particularly useful.
Professor J. Kirk Cochran School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences, Stony Brook University
"Pitson has taken great care to explain the basics as well as the state-of-the-art. A book that any marine scientist (from undergraduate through to professor) will benefit from having close to hand.
Professor David Thomas, School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University; UK & Finnish m Environment Institute, Marine Research Centre, Helsinki; Finland & Arctic Research Centre, fl Aarhus University, Denmark 1
"This new edition of Pilson's classic textbook has been brought up to date with the latest analytical techniques and scientific insights of modern marine chemistry. With its broad scope and light narrative style it will remain the foundation of graduate and advanced undergraduate courses for years to come.
Dr. Johan Schijf. University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science / Chesapeake Biological Laboratory
Engaging and clearly written, this new edition is an accessible introduction that provides students in oceanography, marine chemistry and biogeochemistry with the fundamental tools they need. It highlights geochemical interactions between the ocean, solid earth, atmosphere, and climate, enabling students to appreciate the interconnectedness of Earth's processes and systems, and elucidates the huge variations in the oceans' chemical environment, from surface waters to deep water.
• Fully updated to cover exciting recent developments in the field, including all-new sections and expanded material ranging from estuaries and sedimenti to methane hydrates and ligands.
• Now with a glossary, new end-of-chapter summaries, and questions for students to review their learning and put the theory into practice.
• Appendices provide a useful detailed reference for students, and include seawater properties, and key equations and constants for calculating oceanographic processes |
