Aquatic chemistry is becoming both a rewarding and substantial area of inquiry and is drawing many prominent scientists to its fold. Its literature has changed from a compilation of compositional tables to studies of the chemical reactions occurring within the aquatic environments. But more than this is the recognition that human society in part is determining the nature of aquatic systems. Since rivers deliver to the world ocean most of its dissolved and particulate components, the interactions of these two sets of waters determine the vitality of our coastal waters. This significant vol ume provides not only an introduction to the dynamics of aquatic chem istries but also identifies those materials that jeopardize the resources of both the marine and fluvial domains. Its very title provides its emphasis but clearly not its breadth in considering natural processes. The book will be of great value to those environmental scientists who are dedicated to keeping the resources of the hydrosphere renewable. As the size of the world population becomes larger in the near future and as the uses of materials and energy show parallel increases, the rivers and oceans must be considered as a resource to accept some of the wastes of society. The ability of these waters and the sediments below them to accommodate wastes must be assessed continually. The key questions relate to the capacities of aqueous systems to carry one or more pollutants.

Preface: Michigan Environmental Science Board -- The Michigan Environmental Science Board was created by Governor John Engler by executive order 1992-19 on August 6, 1992. The board is charged with advising the Governor, the Natural Resources Commission, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and other state agencies, as directed by the Governor, on matters affecting the protection and management of Michigan's environment and natural resources. The Board consists of 9 members, appointed by the Governor, who have expertise in one or more of the following areas: engineering, ecological sciences, economics, chemistry, physics, biological sciences, human medicine, statistics, risk assessment, geology and other disciplines as necessary. Upon the request of the Governor to review a particular issue, a panel, consisting of board members with relevant expertise, is convened to evaluate and provide recommendations on the issue.
