Volume 3 Examines the chemical composition of the Earth's Crust, starting with the continental crust and the rocks exposed therein, moving to oceanic crust (MORB and oceanic plateaus) and finishing with island arc crust. Descriptive geochemistry of the Earth's crust, summarizes the processes responsible for crustal formation and modification, exchange between the crust and other Earth reservoirs (mantle, oceans and atmosphere) and examines the secular evolution of the crust.
