Geochemistry (Science/Earth_Sciences/Geochemistry)
up GeochemistryGeochemistry is the study of chemical elements and their isotopes, and their distribution and abundance within minerals, ores, rocks, waters, and the atmosphere. Geochemistry also includes the dynamic aspects of reaction and circulation of the elements in nature. While geochemistry is most often used in reference to the Earth, it also applies to the study of the chemical elements and their isotopes on the moon and other planets.EntriesGeotech.org - Geology and Geochemistry http://www.geotech.org/ Educational site for those interested in learning about surface exploration techniques used for oil and gas. Includes images, analogs, bibliographies, and services. Biogeosciences http://www.biogeosciences.org/ Information, discussion, and resources to help fulfill the scientific need to bridge the earth and life sciences. Martian Geochemistry http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/MPF/science/mineralogy.html Summarizes the geochemical results obtained by NASA's Mars Pathfinder mission. Includes plots of geochemical trends, and comparisons with earlier Viking mission data as well as with Earth geochemistry.

Sie untersucht die chemische Zusammensetzung der Gesteine und Chemistry Chemistry is typically defined as the science that studies the composition, structure, and transformation of matter. It has been called "the central science" because of the way it is related with all Crystallography The Crystallography is a misleading term. Diamonds and relatives are on the peripheries of the crystallographer field of interest. Probably the better name would be the "structural chemistry" or even Environmental Chemistry Environmental chemistry is the study of chemicals, which by their absence or presence in critical amounts, influence life on land and in water. Environmental chemistry includes the chemicals that Environmental Microbiology Environmental microbiology is the study of the composition and physiology of microbial communities in the environment, Geology Geology is the study of Earth history, structure, composition and life forms. Mineralogy Web sites about minerals and mineralogy. Petroleum Web sites pertaining to the use of Geology in the Oil and Gas Industry. Any activity that does Radiometric Dating Rocks and Minerals Rocks and Minerals includes the scientific studies of mineralogy and petrology. The category also includes web sites devoted to the appreciation, acquisition, and Soil Mineralogy Taphonomy Taphonomy is the study of the post-mortem history of organic remains. Taphonomic processes can be constructive (as in those processes that lead to fossilization), or more commonly destructive. Water Resources Water "resources" are the waters that people use or might use for human consumption, industry, etc. Topics may include hydrology, water supply, water distribution, water quality, wastewater, Neigbour categoriesAssociations Atmospheric Chemistry This category includes links that are relevant to persons working in the field of atmospheric chemistry research, as well as to those individuals searching for more information about atmospheric Atmospheric Physics Atmospheric physics is the application of physics to the study of the atmosphere. Atmospheric physicists attempt to model Earth's atmosphere and the atmospheres of other planets using fluid flow Conferences Data Centers Providers of data for the earth sciences. Directories Education Employment Careers advice and employment information in Earth Sciences. Geomatics The study of gathering and processing geographic information, as well as sharing this information. Some major subfields of this area include Geophysics Geophysics involves the application of physical theories and measurements to discover the properties of the earth. The discipline dates to antiquity, mainly as a scientific approach to earthquake Meteorology Meteorology is the interdisciplinary scientific study of the atmosphere that focuses on weather processes and forecasting. It is often an inexact science, especially when forecasting is involved, so Natural Disasters and Hazards This category serves as a collection and reference point for those parts of earth science concerned with earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural events causing damage and destruction.
