MindMap Gallery Basic Overview of Marine Chemistry
Marine chemistry is the study of chemical processes in the ocean, encompassing the composition, distribution, and transformations of marine substances. Major components of seawater include dissolved gases (e.g., oxygen, nitrogen), minerals (e.g., sodium, chloride), nutrients (e.g., nitrate, phosphate), and organic matter. Chemical cycles in the ocean, such as the carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, and phosphorus cycle, regulate the availability of nutrients and influence marine ecosystems.
