Seawater Geochemistry, Composition and Environmental Impacts

In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the geochemistry, composition and environmental impacts of seawater. Topics discussed include the impact of internal wave breaking on the ocean upper layer formation; trace elements in seawater in offshore oil production platform areas; self-purification of seawater; the Salton Sea megaport and seawater canal; and assessing the effect of nearshore currents over the SO2 absorption in Caribbean seawater.
