520    'Seawater' has been substantially updated in this second 
       edition to take account of recent developments in marine 
       science. Sections dealing with difficult physical and 
       chemical concepts have been developed on the basis of 
       feedback from the first edition, making this an ideal 
       learning tool for oceanography students. Chapter 1 
       summarizes the special properties of water and the role of
       the oceans in the hydraulic cycle. The distribution of 
       temperature and salinity in the oceans and how they 
       influence water density and movements is then discussed. 
       Light and sound in seawater are considered next, along 
       with some uses of acoustics. These are followed by an 
       examination of the composition and behaviour of dissolved 
       constituents, including such topics as residence times, 
       the control of pH, and redox relationships. Finally, the 
       history of seawater and its role in global cycles is 
       reviewed, with special reference to climatic change and 
       the CO2 problem.
