Description
Interest 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 oceanographers over the past decade.
This book, in
16 chapters with over 170 figures and tables, reports on the major advances in this area by a distinguished group of international chemical
and biological oceanographers. Additionally, it focuses on the role of DOM in elemental cycling - where the greatest informational need
currently exists.
Audience
Students and academic and professional scientists in oceanography, chemistry, and marine ecology.
