OverviewThis text covers the entire field of geochemistry, assuming very little chemical and mathematical background on the part of students. It uses a blend of theory, laboratory and field studies to show how geochemical principles can be used to solve specific geologic problems, and features many detailed examples of the application of geochemical principles to the study of natural waters, soil, and sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks. It highlights the important role of thermodynamics throughout. There is new/expanded coverage of geochemical modelling, reaction kinetics, crystal bonding forces, nutrient cycling, chemical weathering, mineral distribution coefficients, geothermometry/geobarometry, and environmental geochemistry.
