Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

The pace of revolution in analytical chemistry in the field of Geosciences has been dramatic over recent decades and includes fundamental developments that have become common place in many related and unrelated disciplines. The analytical tools (nano to macro-scale from stable to radioactive isotopes, compound specific sulfur isotopes) used have been applied to wide-ranging applications from inorganic to organic geochemistry, biodiversity and chronological tools, to build an understanding of how the Earth system evolved to its present state.

This book will provide an essential guide to exploring the earth’s natural resources and changing climate by detection science. Individual chapters bring together expertise from across the globe to present a comprehensive outlook on the analytical technologies available to the geoscientist today. Experienced researchers will appreciate the broad treatment of the subject as a valuable reference, while students and those new to the field will quickly gain an appreciation of both the techniques at hand, and the importance of constructing, and analysing, the complex data sets they can generate.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:

Professor Grice has 20 years experience in the fields of organic geochemistry, analytical chemistry and isotope biogeochemistry and has published 100 research papers including 4 book chapters. She is experienced in the development and application of analytical methods in the geosciences having pioneered the application of compound specific isotopes (C, H) of biomarkers in organic geochemistry, and the application of many robust tandem mass spectrometry methods.
