### title

ENVIRONMENTAL GEOCHEMISTRY

### description

A quantitative treatment of chemical and biological processes controlling the speciation and partitioning of inorganic compounds in natural waters. Particular attention will be paid to heterogeneous reaction mechanisms, and kinetics controlling inorganic compounds in aqueous environments. Discuss in-situ techniques for measurement of environmental reactions. For those interested in environmental chemistry, chemistry, limnology, geology, environmental microbiology, soil science, and environmental modeling.
