Origin and Evolution of the Atmosphere and Ocean

The book is about the origin and evolution of the atmosphere and the ocean. It spans an impressive number of concepts from radiative theory to geochemistry, from dating methods to climatic theories. Each chapter provides the necessary physics, chemistry and biology tools in such a way to facilitate...
