• Sommario/riassunto: The oceans cover more than 70% of the earth's surface to an average depth of almost 4000 metres. It is therefore not surprising that exchanges that occur between ocean and atmosphere exert major influences on the global climate. In addition, there is great variety within the expanses of the ocean, including large temperature differences, and enormous biodiversity brought about by the great chemical diversity within the marine environment.Written by international experts in the field, Chemistry in the Marine Environment offers a multidisciplinary and authoritative review of this important topic
