Recent Activities
- Dr. Millero's new book <The Physical Chemistry of Natural Waters>
was published last year and the feedback is excellent. The book is published
by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. and is available in both local and internet
bookstores. Copies of the appendix (PDF) and corrections (PDF) are available
and will be included in the web version of the book.
