Description
Readings from the Treatise on Geochemistry offers an interdisciplinary reference for scientists, researchers and
upper undergraduate and graduate level geochemistry students that is more affordable than the full Treatise. For professionals,
this volume will provide an overview of the field as a whole. For students, it will provide more in-depth introductory content
than is found in broad-based geochemistry textbooks. Articles were selected from chapters across all volumes of the full
Treatise, and include: The Origin and Earliest History of the Earth, Compositional Evolution of the Mantle, Evolution of Sedimentary
Rocks, Soil Formation, Geochemistry of Groundwater, Geologic History of Seawater, Hydrothermal Processes, and Biogeochemistry of Primary
Production in the Sea.
Audience:
professionals, researchers, and upper level undergraduate and graduate geochemistry students
