Chemical Oceanography by Professor James W. Murray

Extensive notes by Professor James W. Murray on chemical oceanography have explored in depth many of the complex chemical processes in the ocean and include such topics as ocean circulation, carbon cycling, major and trace elements in seawater, and the ocean as a sink for anthropogenic carbon, among discussion topics on ocean carbonate chemistry, gas distribution, and gas exchange processes. Among the concepts that are discussed include stable and radioactive isotopes, nutrient stoichiometry, biological production, and redox reactions. The notes also emphasize how chemical tracers play a role in understanding processes within the ocean, which include both the biological and geological processes in the ocean. This service has served students and professionals studying marine chemistry with a solid foundation that satisfies the understanding of interacting chemical processes within the world's oceans.

Marine Chemistry Working Groups

This document covers many matters of concern in marine chemistry, with an emphasis on contaminants of emerging concern. It goes on to describe techniques for passive sampling for pollutants in marine environments, chemical emissions associated with offshore renewable energy developments, microplastics and their environmental impacts, sediment quality guidelines and criteria, and nutrients and chlorophyll in marine ecosystems. The discussion on ocean acidification features in tandem with international, national, and regional activities relevant to contaminants in biota. The resource is invaluable to researchers and environmental professionals working on marine pollution and health issues in oceans, as it provides a complete overview of the ever-growing concerns regarding marine chemistry facing the impacts of climate change and human industrial activities.
