Over 300 international scientists, each experts in their specialties, have written over 330 separate topics on different aspects of geochemistry including geochemical thermodynamics and kinetics, isotope and organic geochemistry, meteorites and cosmochemistry, the carbon cycle and climate, trace elements, geochemistry of high and low temperature processes, and ore deposition, to name just a few. The geochemical behavior of the elements is described as is the state of the art in analytical geochemistry. Each topic incorporates cross-referencing to related articles, and also has its own reference list to lead the reader to the essential articles within the published literature. The entries are arranged alphabetically, for easy access, and the subject and author indices are comprehensive and extensive.^Geochemistry applies chemical techniques and approaches to understanding the Earth and how it works. It touches upon almost every aspect of earth science, ranging from applied topics such as the search for energy and mineral resources, environmental pollution, and climate change to more basic questions such as the Earth's origin and composition, the origin and evolution of life, rock weathering and metamorphism, and the pattern of ocean and mantle circulation. Geochemistry allows us to assign absolute ages to events in Earth's history, to trace the flow of ocean water both now and in the past, trace sediments into subduction zones and arc volcanoes, and trace petroleum to its source rock and ultimately the environment in which it formed. The earliest of evidence of life is provided by chemical and isotopic traces, not fossils, preserved in rocks. Geochemistry has allowed us to unravel the history of the ice ages and thereby deduce their cause.^Geochemistry allows us to determine the swings in Earth's surface temperatures during the ice ages, determine the temperatures and pressures at which rocks have been metamorphosed, and the rates at which ancient magma chambers cooled and crystallized. The field has grown rapidly more sophisticated, in both analytical techniques that can determine elemental concentrations or isotope ratios with exquisite precision and in computational modeling on scales ranging from atomic to planetary. 000844392 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 07, 2018). 000844392 650_0 $$aGeochemistry$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 650_0 $$aEarth sciences$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 650_0 $$aFossil fuels$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 650_0 $$aMines and mineral resources$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 650_0 $$aPhysical geography$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 650_0 $$aEnvironmental chemistry$$vEncyclopedias. 000844392 7001_ $$aWhite, William M.,$$eeditor. 000844392 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319393117 000844392 830_0 $$aEncyclopedia of earth sciences series (Springer (Firm)) 000844392 852__ $$bebk 000844392 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-39312-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000844392 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:844392$$pGLOBAL_SET 000844392 980__ $$aEBOOK 000844392 980__ $$aBIB 000844392 982__ $$aEbook 000844392 983__ $$aOnline 000844392 994__ $$a92$$bISE
