MARINE ORGANIC GEOCHEMISTRY: REVIEW AND CHALLENGES FOR THE FUTURE

Summaries and reviewed papers from this workshop (Honolulu, Hawaii, Jan. 1990) are published in Marine Chem., 39(1-3), Sep. 1992. (Elsevier Sci. Pubs., POB 882, Madison Sq. Sta., New York NY 10159; or POB 211, 1000 AE Amsterdam, Neth.) Topics include the carbon cycle, human influences on it through temperature and UV modification, feedbacks between it and global warming, and needed research.

"Overview and Key Recommendations," 5-9. For this and the following four working group reports write to issue editor J. Farrington, Woods Hole Oceanog. Inst., Woods Hole MA 02543.

"Water Column Working Group Report," 15-25.

"Sediment Diagenesis Working Group Report," 27-37.

"Macromolecular Organic Matter Working Group Report," 39-50.

"Biomarker and Molecular Paleontology Working Group Report," 51-65.
