    Intensive research carried out during the 1990a s (known as the “Iron Age of Oceanography”) provided a wealth of new information and this title, written by acknowledged experts and reviewed by international specialists, provides the authoritative and comprehensive review of the subject area. A joint venture between SCOR and IUPAC, it expertly addresses the current state of knowledge of the biogeochemistry of iron in seawater and covers: aeo Chemical speciation aeo Analytical techniques aeo Transformation of iron aeo It includes evidence for iron limitation of primary production of High Nutrient Low Chlorophyll (HNLC) areas in the ocean aeo Structured into a series of chapters it has been reviewed by international specialists– SCOR (Scientific Committee for Ocean Research) and IUPAC (International Union for Pure and Applied Chemistry) aeo The final chapter summarises the conclusions of the book and discusses the priorities for future research aeo Ideal for scientists studying the environmental impact of metals and their role in marine ecosystems; Marine Scientists and Oceanographers; Environmental Analytical Chemists

    Author Biography

    David R. Turner was born in London, UK in 1979. He obtained his M.Sci. in Chemistry at King's College, London where he became interested in crystal nucleation and organimetallic anion sensors. He stayed on to do a Ph.D. with Jonathan Steed at King's College and at Durham University, on urea-functionalised anion receptors, including tripodal organic host species and molecular tweezers. His work also involved aspects of crystal engineering and solid state phenomena involving transition metal/ureido systems.
