Marine Electrochemistry: A Practical Introduction

A concise introduction to the fundamentals of electrochemical methods and their practical application to environmental and oceanographic studies. All the chapters are written by practitioners with considerable experience in the various techniques both in the laboratory and in the field. Features detailed treatments of the conductometric determination of salinity and the amperometric determination of oxygen; the use of potentiometric sensors both for direct measurement and as end-point detectors in titrimetric procedures; electrodeposition procedures as a versatile and chemically selective means of obtaining uncontaminated samples for analysis by spectroscopic and neutron activation analysis; and voltammetry.
