Purchased the book for an Oceanography class
Fun to Read
Good job
Needed it for school and was a great price!!
Oceanography written in a style both engaging and scholarly. Fromhelpful hints on serious subjects such as how to escape rip currents tofunny stories about plastic bathtub toys (ducks, turtles and frogs) thatwere lost overboard from a container ship and provided valuable scientificdata on ocean currents, I found it all fascinating.The book includesgenerous amounts of color graphics showing beautiful underwater scenery andmarine life as well as colorful maps and aerial photos (for instance, theimage depicting wave effects on the shoreline).Each chapter ends withexercises, extensive references, suggested additional reading andrecommended web sites to visit.Though the glossary is extensive, Iparticularly liked the use of the short word derivations that appearfrequently throughout the text such as Bathyscaphe (bathos=depth, scaphe=asmall ship), thus saving numerous trips to the dictionary. The book iswritten as a college-level text for first year oceanography students. Instructors will find an impressive instructional package available fromthe publisher that includes such things as slides, transparencies, acompanion web site reference and an instructor's manual.Read this bookand you will agree that it is clearly a five star work. ...

Editorial Review Product Description The third edition of Chemical Oceanography incorporates significant findings on the properties of oceans from recent, large-scale oceanographic programs and valuable new data derived from additional experiments. It also discusses the interactions of metals with inorganic and natural organic ligands and the effect of speciation of metals on bioavailability and toxicity. The section on carbonate systems now examines the input of fossil fuel CO2 into the ocean and its effect on the pH of the world oceans. Frank J. Millero, a world-renowned marine researcher and professor of undergraduate and graduate courses at the University of Miami for nearly 40 years, presents a time-tested and user-friendly resource specifically designed for both classroom use and self-study.

Great reference for students and practicing professionals in oceanography
Highly recommended The first chapter reviews the basics of statistical sampling and how various oceanographic data elements are collected. It describes in detail the various methods used for collection and their inherent strengths and weakness. The second chapter moves from collecting the data to processing and data presentation; including calibration, interpolation and a variety of presentation formats. The third chapter presents the standard statistical methods and procedures for error handling. The last two chapters cover the range of methods used for spatial and time series analysis of data. This includes not only long established methods but more recent methodologies, such as wavelet transforms, as well. A bibliography and set of appendices complement the text, making the book an all encompassing reference work. The authors have created an extensive bibliography that enables readers to follow up with more specific readings. The appendices include units in physical oceanography, a glossary of statistical terms, statistical tables, and non-uniform numbers.
