This open access book explores the history, production, and certification of reference materials for essential parameters in oceanography and provides a comprehensive understanding of them to readers. Because inorganic macro-nutrients, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and carbonate system parameters, including dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, and pH, are essential parameters in oceanography, they can be used to define biogeographic provinces, monitor ocean health, and detect decadal-scale oceanic climate changes. Without reference materials for these parameters, it would be difficult to produce reliable data sets or long-term baseline studies that are required to verify global change and oceanic stability.
The book includes chapters on developing new reference materials for density, dissolved oxygen, dissolved organic carbon, dissolved organic matter, and trace metals, which are also important in oceanographic studies. The lead authors of each chapter regarding these parameters are top scientists in these areas; hence, this is the most comprehensive book of chemical reference materials for ocean science, written by experts in each field. The book is a useful resource for readers to find the latest information and status of certified reference materials (CRM) and reference materials (RM) and of ways to use CRM in their studies.
We are in the middle of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030), to which this book makes a timely contribution.

About the Author
Prof. Michio Aoyama received his Ph.D. from Kanazawa University in 1999. He is currently a visiting professor at the Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences of the University of Tsukuba and at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity of Fukushima University. He is also a senior scientist at the Research Institute of Global Change of the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology in Yokosuka, Japan.
He is an internationally recognized expert with 46 years of experience in hydrography and in the development of established standard materials and quality assurance of salinity and nutrients in seawater. He is also an internationally recognized expert with 38 years of experience in assessment and evaluation of anthropogenic radionuclides in the environment (atmosphere and oceans) and in the development of analytical methods in radioactivity.
Dr. Chikako Cheong received her Ph.D. in environmental studies from the University of Tsukuba in 2020, and she is currently a senior researcher at the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ) and the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST).
She is a metrologist who has been involved in the development of analytical methods for seawater nutrients and verification of their accuracy for 15 years since she assumed her current post. At the National Metrology Institute, she has developed nutrient-certification reference materials for seawater composition in accordance with ISO 17034. She has also been involved in the development and continuous maintenance of Japanese national primary standard solutions for elements and inorganic ions, including nutrient ions such as nitrate and phosphate, among others. Using her expertise in the development of certified reference materials, she has been working to introduce the International System of Units (SI) in traceability in oceanographic observations and to ensure their international comparability.
Dr. Akihiko Murata received his Ph.D. from the University of Tsukuba in 1999. Currently, he is a senior principal investigator at the Physical and Chemical Oceanography Research Group, Global Ocean Observation Research Center (GOORC), Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology Center (JASMTEC).
He has been working on shipboard observations to detect decadal-scale increases of CO2 dissolved in the ocean interior and to assess how much anthropogenic CO2 emitted into the atmosphere is taken up by the ocean. Over the last decade, he has served as a chief scientist of some research cruises of the Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigation (GO-SHIP) conducted aboard the R/V Mirai of JAMSTEC. In these cruises, he took charge of high-qualitymeasurements of carbonate system properties, including dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, and pCO2. He conducts the measurements of the CO2-system properties mostly aboard the R/V Mirai in the world’s oceans to survey the progression of ocean acidification.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
