The Barrier Zones in the Ocean
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2005; US$ 189.99Geochemical barrier zones play an important role in determining various physical systems and characteristics of the oceans, e.g. hydrodynamics, salinity, temperature and light. In this book, each of the 40 barrier zones covered are illustrated and defined by physical-chemical parameters. Among the topics discussed are the processes of inflow, transformation... more...
Biogeochemistry of Marine Dissolved Organic Matter
Elsevier Science 2002; US$ 134.95Interest in marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is very high because it plays an important role in oceanic and global carbon cycling, which in turn impacts weather. Understanding the processes involved in the transformations of carbon, phosphorus, nitrogen, and other major elements in the oceans has been a primary goal of marine biogeochemists and... more...
CO2 in Seawater
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 230.00Carbon dioxide is the most important greenhouse gas after water vapor in the atmosphere of the earth. More than 98% of the carbon of the atmosphere-ocean system is stored in the oceans as dissolved inorganic carbon. The key for understanding critical processes of the marine carbon cycle is a sound knowledge of the seawater carbonate chemistry, including... more...
Chasing Science at Sea
University of Chicago Press 2009; US$ 13.00To the average office-dweller, marine scientists seem to have the good life: cruising at sea for weeks at a time, swimming in warm coastal waters, living in tropical paradises. But ocean scientists who go to sea will tell you that it is no vacation. Creature comforts are few and the obstacles seemingly insurmountable, yet an abundance of... more...
Chemical Oceanography and the Marine Carbon Cycle
Cambridge University Press 2008; US$ 76.00A textbook on chemical oceanography with full coverage of the marine carbon cycle. more...
Chemistry in the Marine Environment
Royal Society of Chemistry 2000; US$ 56.00The 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... more...
Descriptive Physical Oceanography
Elsevier Science 2011; US$ 99.95The sixth edition of Descriptive Physical Oceanography provides an introduction to descriptive physical oceanography for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. The emphasis is on large-scale oceanography, based mainly in observations, with some topics from waves and coastal oceanography also included. Topics include the physical properties... more...

Eutrophication in the Baltic Sea
Springer 2008; US$ 129.99The reduction of eutrophication in the Baltic Sea has been a hot issue for mass-media, science, political parties and environmental action groups with manifold implications related to fisheries. This book presents a remedial strategy aimed at combatting eutrophication in the Baltic Sea which challenges the accepted remedial strategy. more...
