“The third edition of Marine Geochemistry is an invaluable resource for a wide range of readers from undergraduates to researchers, providing a concise up to date summary of the interplay of chemical and biological factors that control ocean cheamistry.”  (Journal of Geological Magazine, 1 August 2013

“Highly recommended.  Upper-division undergraduates through professionals in marine sciences.”  (Choice, 1 May 2013)

 

Nach zehn Jahren erscheint nun die 3. Auflage dieses renommierten Fachbuchs und geht der Frage nach, wie unsere Meere als geochemisches System "funktionieren". Umfassend erläutert werden die neuesten Entwicklungen und Erkenntnisse und auch Rolle der Ozeane beim Klimawandel.
