The scope is limited to issues relevant to the sources and bioavailability of DOM and the interface between DOM and several ecosystem-level processes such as nutrient/toxicant transformations and retention. This volume contains overviews of (1) the supply of DOM to aquatic ecosystems and variation in DOM composition, (2) processes mediating the transfer of...

The material in Chapter 7 can be used in several ways (1) it is a reasonably self-contained overview of localized corrosion and can be used as such for readers familiar with the principles developed in earlier chapters (2) in covering the earlier chapters as a text, reference can be made to specific sections of Chapter 7 to illustrate the relevance of principles being developed to observations on real systems (3) conversely, the chapter can be covered with emphasis on how knowledge of the principles of corrosion presented in earlier chapters is fundamental to understanding applied corrosion behavior and (4) an outline of the ma-...

Having defined and gathered data adequate for an initial reserves estimation, the next step is to look at the various options to develop the field. The objective of the feasibility study is to document various technical options, of which at least one should be economically viable. The study will contain the subsurface development options, the process design, equipment sizes, the proposed locations (e.g. offshore platforms), and the crude evacuation and export system. The cases considered will be accompanied by a cost estimate and planning schedule. Such a document gives a complete overview of all the requirements, opportunities, risks and constraints. 

The third important source for infonnation on modem Raman spectroscopy are the books cataloguing the proceedings of the International Conference on Raman Spectroscopy (ICORS) [37]. ICORS is held every two years at various international locations and feahires hundreds of contributions from leading research groups covering all areas of Raman spectroscopy. Although the published presentations are quite limited in lengdi, they each contain references to the more substantial works and collectively provide an excellent overview of current trends m Raman spectroscopy. A snapshot or brief sununary of the 1998 conference appears at the end of this chapter.

The major water desalination processes that ate currendy in use or in advanced research stages are described herein. Information on detailed modeling can be found in the Hterature cited. The major texts on water desalination written since the 1980s are those by Spiegler and Laird (47), Khan (48), which contains many practical design aspects, Lior (49) on the measurements and control aspects, Heitman (40) on pretreatment and chemistry aspects, and Spiegler and El-Sayed (50), an overview primer. Extensive data sources are provided in References 39 and 51. 

Acute and Chronic Toxicity. Although chromium displays nine oxidation states, the low oxidation state compounds, -II to I, all require Special conditions for existence and have very short lifetimes in a normal environment. This is also tme for most organ ochromium compounds, ie, compounds containing Cr—C bonds. Chromium compounds that exhibit stabiUty under the usual ambient conditions are limited to oxidation states II, III, IV, V, and VI. Only Cr(III) and Cr(VI) compounds are produced in large quantities and are accessible to most of the population. Therefore, the toxicology of chromium compounds has been historically limited to these two states, and virtually all of the available information is about compounds of Cr(III) and/or Cr(VI) (59,104). However, there is some indication that Cr(V) may play a role in chromium toxicity (59,105—107). Reference 104 provides an overview and summary of the environmental, biological, and medical effects of chromium and chromium compounds as of the late 1980s. 

Current spreadsheet programs contain many advanced capabiUties and enhancements that an engineer might want to use they also offer improved performance, interfaces to data base and word-processing programs and have a host of other features. A good overview that describes the features and presents what is available in each of the latest spreadsheet packages on the market is available (78).

The World Wide Web has transformed the way in which we obtain and analyze published information on proteins. What only a few years ago would take days or weeks and require the use of expensive computer workstations can now be achieved in a few minutes or hours using personal computers, both PCs and Macintosh, connected to the internet. The Web contains hundreds of sites of Interest to molecular biologists, many of which are listed in Pedro s BioMolecular Research Tools (http // www.fmi.ch/biology/research tools.html). Many sites provide free access to databases that make it very easy to obtain information on structurally related proteins, the amino acid sequences of homologous proteins, relevant literature references, medical information and metabolic pathways. This development has opened up new opportunities for even non-specialists to view and manipulate a structure of interest or to carry out amino-acid sequence comparisons, and one can now rapidly obtain an overview of a particular area of molecular biology. We shall here describe some Web sites that are of interest from a structural point of view. Updated links to these sites can be found in the Introduction to Protein Structure Web site (http // WWW.ProteinStructure.com/).

Volume 79 of Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry commences with an overview of Tellurium-Nitrogen-Containing Heterocycles by I. D. Sadekov and V. I. Minkin of Rostov State University, Russia, andrepresents an update of the review published by the same authors in Volume 58 of Advances, eight years ago. The field has expanded markedly in the recent past, and the compounds show promise in an increasing number of applications, particularly in the material science field. 

The final chapter in this volume by Alexander Sadimenko (University of Fort Hare, South Afiica) continues a series by this author on the organometaUic chemistry of heterocycles, of which 0,S monoheterocycles and N,P,Si,B monoheterocycles were published in volumes 78 and 79, respectively. The organometaUic chemistry of pyrazole is so broad that the present overview does not include the polyfunctional, chelating frameworks containing pyrazolyl units, which are typified by the pyrazolyl borate derivatives. These will be the subject of a future chapter.
