EOS425 - Aqueous Chemistry in the Earth and Ocean

Description

Controls on the concentrations of aqueous species in the hydrosphere. Principles of chemical equilibrium and kinetics are applied to the major aspects of the global hydrochemical cycle. Investigates reactions and sources and sinks of elements in oxic and anoxic aquatic systems such as rainwater, rivers, lakes, groundwater, estuaries and oceans; also the application of natural and anthropogenic tracers to geochemical problems within aquatic systems.
