Online resources: Summary: This book is a contribution to the International Year of Planet Earth arising from the 33rd International Geological Congress, held in Oslo, Norway during August 2008. The first section of the book considers aspects of geochemical processes which led to the development of the solid Earth as it is today. The second portion of the book shows how the rapidly-evolving analytical tools and approaches presently used by geochemists may be used to solve emerging environmental and other societal problems. This unique collection of reviews, with contributions from a range of internationally distinguished scientists, will be invaluable reading for advanced students and others interested in the central role geochemistry in the earth sciences.Summary: Intro -- Frontiers in Geochemistry: Contribution of Geochemistry to the Study of the Earth -- Contents -- Contributors -- Editors'Preface -- Introduction -- Part 1: Contribution of Geochemistry to the Study of the Earth -- 1: Geochemistry and Secular Geochemical Evolution of the Earth ' s Mantle and Lower Crust -- 2: Crustal Evolution - A Mineral Archive Perspective -- 3: Discovering the History of Atmospheric Oxygen -- 4: Geochemistry of the Oceanic Crust -- 5: Silicate Rock Weathering and the Global Carbon Cycle -- 6: Geochemistry of Secular Evolution of Groundwater -- 7: Stable Isotope Geochemistry: Some Perspectives -- Part 2: Frontiers in Geochemistry -- 8: Geochemistry of Geologic Sequestration of Carbon Dioxide -- 9: Microbial Geochemistry: At the Intersection of Disciplines -- 10: Nanogeochemistry: Nanostructures and Their Reactivity in Natural Systems -- 11: Urban Geochemistry -- 12: Archaeological and Anthropological Applications of Isotopic and Elemental Geochemistry -- Index -- Colour plates.PPN: PPN: 809505940Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PQE | ZDB-30-PAD
