Recenzii
Ocean chemistry for the 21st century. Based on 45 years of teaching this book takes the field well beyond traditional equilibrium models and uses new and important results from tracer geochemistry, and novel experiments, to shed light on the critical rate processes at ocean boundaries. Newly introduced here is the molecular structure of sea water, thus providing insight into the molecular basis for many of the bulk property coefficients for sea water that are now commonly used.
Murray offers distinctive insights into the pathways of chemical elements and their compounds in the ocean, rooted in fundamental understanding of seawater physical chemistry. The comprehensive book spans from classical to cutting-edge topics, making it an essential textbook for both undergraduate and graduate students.
An advanced understanding of aquatic chemistry has never been more important. This book provides an excellent combination of fundamental knowledge required for any aquatic geochemist, and applied problems that allow students to employ their understanding in a quantitative framework. The introductory chapters set the stage for the interdisciplinary nature of geochemistry, while the subsequent chapters provide a detailed description of key aspects of aquatic chemistry. The chapter on trace metals is particularly valuable, as no oceanography textbook to date has incorporated the vast knowledge afforded by the GEOTRACES program.
