He joined the staff of the Department of Inorganic, Analytical, and Applied Chem­ istry of the University of Geneva, Switzerland in 1969. He is also an Invited Professor at INRS-Eau, University of Quebec, Canada, since 1982 and has been Associate Professor of Electroanalytical Chemistry at the University of Lausanne Switzerland. He is presently the Chairman of the IUPAC Commission of Environ­ mental Analytical Chemistry and a member of the Research Council of the Swiss National Foundation. He has authored 100 research papers, 2 books, and is a co­ editor of 3 other monographs. He teaches under- and postgraduate courses in Analytical Chemistry and Environmental Chemistry and is actively involved in organizing postgraduate courses in limnology. Dr. Bufile has received diplomas in biological chemistry, chemical engineer­ ing, and numerical calculation, and a Ph.D. degree in analytical chemistry. His research interests are the understanding of physico-chemical processes regulating the circulation of chemical components in environmental compartments, the relative influences of these processes and the development of biota, and the development of in situ sensors for the measurement of the corresponding key, physico-chemical parameters. He is particularly interested in contributing to the understanding of the control of macroscale effects, at the level of environmental compartments such as soils, lakes, etc., by microscale phenomena, at the molecu­ lar, colloidal, and microbial level, by considering multidisciplinary approaches. Herman P. van Leeuwen is an electrochemist who received his education at the State University of Utrecht, The Netherlands. He obtained his degree in chemistry, with amain specialization in electrochemistry, in 1969. He then joined the electrochemistry group of Professor J. H. Sluyters where he prepared his thesis in the field of pulse methods in electrode kinetics. The Ph.D. degree was awarded cum laude in 1972. In the period from 1968 until 1973 he also was a part-time teacher of chemistry. In 1972 he joined the colloid chemistry and electrochemistry group of Professor J. Lyklema at the Wageningen Agricultural University, where he became a senior scientist, in 1978, and associate professor of electrochemistry, in 1986. He has been active in teaching analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, and electrochemistry. His current research activities include electrodynamics of colloids (in relation to colloid stability), voltammetric speciation of heavy metals in environmental systems, and ion binding by synthetic and natural polyelectrolytes. He has published some 70 research papars, reviews, and book chapters in these fields. He has an intensive cooperation with colleagues from Czechoslovakia, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, and the U.K. He is currently the secretary of the Electrochem­ istry Working Group of the Royal Dutch Chemical Society, associate member of the IUPAC Commission on Electroanalytical Chemistry, and titular member and secretary of the IUPAC Commission on Environmental Analytical Chemistry. Preface At the time of preparing Volume 1 of this series, it was already clear that the topic of environmental particles has a very broad scope and impact. Further volumes would be necessary to cover at least a reasonable number of the relevant aspects. At an early stage of the preparation of Volume 1, we therefore decided to initiate a second volume. The intention was to place some emphasis on spectroscopic and colloid chemical aspects. We have been fortunate enough to find the internationally acknowledged experts in these fields willing to contribute critical, authoritative reviews. And, as with Volume 1, we attained significant knowledge from the plenary discussion of the draft chapters between all the contributing authors (Davos, October, 1991). Volume 2 continues the series in the sense that we try to contribute to the development of environmental analytical and physical chemistry. We deliberately extend the treatment from purely analytical aspects of sampling and characteriza­ tion to the initiation and development of new concepts in the analysis of physico­ chemical processes and interactions in real environmental systems. Thus, we feel, environmental chemistry is best served. The preparation of this volume was realized within the frame of our activities as an IUPAC commission. And we thank the responsible IUPAC officers for their most constructive reviews and their prompt help in bringing the various chapters of this volume to their final form. In particular, we would like to express our gratitude to Professors Hulanicki, Svehla, and Grasserbauer, who carefully read through all the draft chapters. We would like to thank the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) for financial support of the scientific work of the commission. Thanks are also due to the European Environmental Research Organization (EERO) for supporting the plenary discussion meeting in Davos, Switzerland. J. Ruffle H.
