Introduction to Organic Geochemistry

An Introduction to Organic Geochemistry explores the fate of organic matter of all types, biogenic and man-made, in the Earth System.

investigates the variety of pathways and biogeochemical transformations that carbon compounds can experience over a range of time scales and in different environments
scope widened to provide a broad and up-to-date background - structured to accommodate readers with varied scientific backgrounds
essential terminology is defined fully and boxes are used to explain concepts introduced from other disciplines
further study aided by the incorporation of carefully selected literature references
It investigates the variety of pathways and biogeochemical transformations that carbon compounds can experience over a range of time scales and in different environments.
