This note looks at the oceans and is
an introduction to marine chemistry. The sub-topics of this lecture includes:
ocean dynamic topography, ocean temperature and salinity; oceanic circulation;
thermohaline circulation, carbon cycle, composition of sea water; variations of
sea water through time, hot vents and cold seeps, ferromanganese nodules, gas
hydrates, radiogenic isotopes in the oceans, U-disequilibrium dating and
sedimentation rates.
