Diffusion of contaminants in the ocean
Book

OSTI ID:6101573
An understanding of the laws governing contaminant diffusion in the ocean makes it possible to choose correct methods of calculating the transport of biogenic elements, dissolved gases, and pollutants in the oceans. The study of the transport of material of any origin (biological or chemical) in the oceans is very complicated since it is influenced by many factors. This book pays much attention to the study of concentration fluctuations and diffusion of contaminants. The results of various experiments are added to the theoretical study. Recommendations for handling marine waste disposal are also presented. The book is directed at researchers in oceanography, marine technology, and the environmental sciences.
