Description for Chemical Speciation in the Environment
Hardcover. Provides an overview of the status of speciation science and indicates how the field may develop. This book deals with methodologies for speciation analysis and with elemental speciation in particular compartments of the environment. Editor(s): Ure, A.; Davidson, C. Num Pages: 480 pages, 60. BIC Classification: PNF; TQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 29. Weight in Grams: 1186.
Considerable recent research has focused on the topic of chemical speciation in the environment. It is increasingly realised that the distribution, mobility and biological availability of chemical elements depend not simply on their concentrations but, critically, on the forms in which they occur in natural systems. Continuing developments in analytical chemistry have made speciation practicable even where analytes are present at trace levels (as is often the case in natural samples).

In the second edition of this book, the expertise of scientists involved in chemical speciation in various fields have been brought together to provide an overview of the current ... Read more

Reviews for Chemical Speciation in the Environment
"...this book is highly recommended for a broader scientific readership. It should not only find its place on the bookshelf of analytical chemists and 'speciation researchers' but can also serve as an excellent source of information for environmental scientists outside the specialised community." - Journal of Environmental Monitoring
