The book commences with an introductory chapter that provides a comprehensive overview of the observed chemical concentrations in the ocean. Subsequently, chapters are dedicated to employing chemical tracers to quantify fluxes across diverse temporal scales. Long-term chemical cycles, driven by exchanges between seawater, land, sediments, and underwater volcanoes, take center stage. Biological and ocean mixing processes play a pivotal role in governing internal chemical cycles, which respond to changes on scales ranging from hundreds to thousands of years. Stable and radioactive isotopes serve as invaluable tools for tracing the fluxes of nutrients and carbon, enabling the quantification of chemical cycle rates and mechanisms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA distinct focus of the book is the examination of anthropogenic influences, which have emerged to rival the magnitude of certain natural cycles. Throughout the text, discussion boxes and quantitative problems serve as valuable resources for instructors, aiding in the enhancement of student learning. Additionally, appendices further augment the book's utility as a comprehensive reference text for students and researchers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1056g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 195 x 253 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781107179899\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steven R.
