The principles of chemical oceanography provide insight into the processes regulating the marine carbon cycle. The text offers a background in chemical oceanography and a description of how chemical elements in seawater and ocean sediments are used as tracers of physical, biological, chemical and geological processes in the ocean. The first seven chapters present basic topics of thermodynamics, isotope systematics and carbonate chemistry, and explain the influence of life on ocean chemistry and how it has evolved in the recent (glacial-interglacial) past. This is followed by topics essential to understanding the carbon cycle, including organic geochemistry, air-sea gas exchange, diffusion and reaction kinetics, the marine and atmosphere carbon cycle and diagenesis in marine sediments. Figures are available to download from www.cambridge.org/9780521833134. Ideal as a textbook for upper-level undergraduates and graduates in oceanography, environmental chemistry, geochemistry and earth science and a valuable reference for researchers in oceanography.

The Joint Global Ocean Flux Study, World Ocean Climate Experiment, SOIREE, EisenEx, IronEx, and SOFEX have yielded valuable new data on the properties and biogeochemical processes of the oceans. Noted teacher and researcher Frank Millero synthesizes the most important results from these studies in this third edition of Chemical Oceanography. This book features an expanded discussion on the effect of speciation of metals on bioavailability and toxicity, based on new understanding derived from voltammetry methods. The section on carbonate systems in the ocean now includes fundamental chemistry methods. This edition features a sixteen-page color insert, over 400 illustrations, and references to key Web sites.
