American Chemical Society Geochemistry Division Symposium on Progress in Marine Chemistry (200th) Held in Washington, DC on 28-29 August 1990

A two-day symposium entitled 'Progress in marine Chemistry' was held at the 200th meeting of the American Chemical Society in Washington, D.C. 28-29 August 1990. The meeting was attended by over 50 participants. The meeting included approximately 24 presentations on select topics of physical, inorganic, redox speciation, and organic marine chemistry, about half of which are being published in a special issue of Marine Chemistry. Several noted foreign marine chemists were among the speakers and supported by this PRF grant. The occasion was also used to honor the life-long contributions of Edward D. Goldberg to the field of marine chemistry. Some of Dr. Goldberg's students and associates used this symposium to document, in their presentations, the outstanding contributions that he has made to the progress of marine chemistry.
