Inhaltsangabe

As concerns mount about the fate of hazardous wastes in the environment, and the role of anthropogenic chemicals in global warming, environmental chemistry is growing in prominence in the undergraduate curriculum. In departments of chemistry, earth science and environmental science, students now need a concise thorough introduction to the subject. This new textbook has been designed to meet these student's needs. The book assumes little or no previous chemistry background and introduces the fundamental principles used in studies of environmental chemistry. It illustrates how these apply in cases ranging from the local to the global scale. A strong theme of the book is the importance of understanding how natural geochemical processes operate over a variety of time-scales, so the effects of human perturbations can be measured against these. The team of authors behind "An Introduction to Environmental Chemistry" belong to one of the world's leading research groups in the field.
