Analysis of seawater

Meer over het boek

In recent years, advancements in sensitivity have enabled true ultra-trace metal determinations in water, while resolving complex organic mixtures in seawater at very low detection limits has also become feasible. This surge of interest in micro-constituents from both environmental and nutrient balance perspectives coincides with the emergence of advanced instrumentation tailored to meet analytical demands. This comprehensive compilation presents proven methods for chemical analysis of seawater, featuring 45 tables and 48 figures. The author organizes the methods logically, facilitating easy learning and understanding of available instrumentation. Practitioners can effectively implement these methods in their laboratories for quick and reliable application. Additionally, detailed descriptions empower analysts to develop new methods tailored to emerging analytes. Covering both classical and cutting-edge physical techniques, this volume serves as an invaluable resource for analysts, oceanographers, fisheries experts, and policymakers involved in seawater environmental protection.
