Book Description
"The role of C02 and the cycling of carbon through the earth's oceans and atmosphere have been focal points in the discussion of the effect of humanity on the earth. The sources, sinks, and cycling mechanisms of C02 are important, and still widely disputed, variables in both their potential for affecting the earth's climate and in the development of accurate models of ocean circulation. The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) is pleased to present the attendees of the Second Scientific Meeting of The Oceanography Society with this special publication, C02 Transport and Transformation in the Ocean. This publication provides a list of recent reference works about C02 transport, which were found by searching several online files and several CD-ROM products available at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Library"--Introduction

Air Pollution Calculations
Author: Daniel A. Vallero
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443139881
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 674
Book Description
Air Pollution Calculations: Quantifying Pollutant Formation, Transport, Transformation, Fate and Risks, Second Edition enhances the systems science aspects of air pollution, including transformation reactions in soil, water, sediment and biota that contribute to air pollution. This second edition will be an update based on research and actions taken since 2019 that affect air pollution calculations, including new control technologies, emissions measurement, and air quality modeling. Recent court cases, regulatory decisions, and advances in technology are discussed and, where necessary, calculations have been revised to reflect these updates. Sections discuss pollutant characterization, pollutant transformation, and environmental partitioning. Air partitioning, physical transport of air pollutants, air pollution biogeochemistry, and thermal reactions are also thoroughly explored. The author then carefully examines air pollution risk calculations, control technologies and dispersion models. The text wraps with discussions of economics and project management, reliability and failure, and air pollution decision-making. - Provides real-life current cases as examples of quantitation of emerging air pollution problems - Includes straightforward derivation of equations, giving practitioners and instructors a direct link between first principles of science and applications of technologies - Presents example calculations that make scientific theory real for the student and practitioner

Treatise on Geochemistry
Author:
Publisher: Newnes
ISBN: 0080983006
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 14787
Book Description
This extensively updated new edition of the widely acclaimed Treatise on Geochemistry has increased its coverage beyond the wide range of geochemical subject areas in the first edition, with five new volumes which include: the history of the atmosphere, geochemistry of mineral deposits, archaeology and anthropology, organic geochemistry and analytical geochemistry. In addition, the original Volume 1 on "Meteorites, Comets, and Planets" was expanded into two separate volumes dealing with meteorites and planets, respectively. These additions increased the number of volumes in the Treatise from 9 to 15 with the index/appendices volume remaining as the last volume (Volume 16). Each of the original volumes was scrutinized by the appropriate volume editors, with respect to necessary revisions as well as additions and deletions. As a result, 27% were republished without major changes, 66% were revised and 126 new chapters were added. In a many-faceted field such as Geochemistry, explaining and understanding how one sub-field relates to another is key. Instructors will find the complete overviews with extensive cross-referencing useful additions to their course packs and students will benefit from the contextual organization of the subject matter Six new volumes added and 66% updated from 1st edition. The Editors of this work have taken every measure to include the many suggestions received from readers and ensure comprehensiveness of coverage and added value in this 2nd edition The esteemed Board of Volume Editors and Editors-in-Chief worked cohesively to ensure a uniform and consistent approach to the content, which is an amazing accomplishment for a 15-volume work (16 volumes including index volume)!

The Role of Air-Sea Exchange in Geochemical Cycling
Author: Patrick Buat-Ménard
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400947380
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 555
Book Description
This book arises from a NATO-sponsored Advanced Study Institute on 'The Role of Air-Sea Exchange in Geochemical Cycling' held at Bombann@§. near Bordeaux, France. from 16 to 27 September 1985. The chapters of the book are the written versions of the lectures given at the Institute. The aim of the book is to give a comprehensive up-to-date coverage of the subject. presented in a teaching mode. The chapters contain much recent research material and attempt to give the reader an understanding of how the role of air-sea exchange in geochemical cycling can be quantitatively assessed. In the last decade, major advances in the fields of marine and atmospheric chemistry have underlined the role of physical, chemical and biological processes at and near the air-sea interface in a number of geochemical cycles (C. S, N, metals etc ... ). Further, there is strong concern over the anthropogenic perturbation of these cycles on both regional and global scales. The first part of the book (Chapters 1 to 8) provides a review of topics fundamental to such studies. These topics include concepts in geochemical modelling, assessment of atmospheric transport from sources to the oceans. description of mixing and transport processes within the ocean for both dissolved and particulate materials, quantification of air-sea fluxes for both gases and particles, photochemical transformations in the atmospheric and oceanic boundary layers.
