A qualitative and quantitative treatment of chemical
equilibria in natural systems such as lakes, rivers, the
oceans and ambient air is studied. The magnitude of
anthropogenic perturbations of natural equilibria will be
assessed, and specific topics like heavy metal pollution in
water, acid rain, asbestos pollution and nuclear
contamination will be discussed.
