Synopsis

Water-rock interactions play a major role in nearly all physical and chemical processes operating on the Earth's surface and subsurface. Understanding how these reactions work through laboratory, field, and theoretical studies will help provide solutions to many global and local environmental problems that face our society today. Water-rock interactions also figure prominently in exploration and production of petroleum, geothermal energy and ore deposits in continents and deep ocean floors.;The 368 papers published in Volume I (low temperature environments) and Volume 2 (moderate and high temperature environments) provide the latest research results in this rapidly expanding field of study. These papers are of interest to professionals and graduate students in earth sciences including geologists, geochemists, hydrologists and water chemists, especially those involved in the study of natural and polluted systems, as well as to applied scientists and engineers in the fields of environmental science, energy and natural resources.

Topics: Volume 1: Keynote lectures; Mineral-fluid interface geochemistry; Geochemical modelling; Organic geochemistry; Natural hazards and environmental contamination; Global processes; Oxidation-reduction reactions in surface and ground waters; Weathering processes and surface water environments; Saline lakes and evaporite deposits; Unsaturated zone environments; Groundwater environments. Volume 2: Keynote lectures; Stable and radioactive isotopes; Geochemical modelling; Sedimentary basins; Geothermal systems; Metamorphic environments; Hydrothermal OTe deposits; Seawater-rock interactions.
