This is the second of two volumes that together provide an integrated picture of the Montenegrin Adriatic coast, presenting the natural components of the system as well as the chemical composition and chemical processes in the extended area.This book covers all aspects of marine chemistry such as the hydrographic and oceanographic characteristics of seawater, the toxicity of heavy metals in the marine environment, the quality of marinas and maritime areas, and the legal regime for protecting the marine environment from pollution.Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, the book offers an invaluable source of information for researchers, students and environmental managers alike.

Provides a comprehensive resource on all aspects of marine chemistry
