Water Science Reviews 2

The overall theme of Volume 2 is water in crystalline solids: the ice polymorplis, salt and organic hydrates. from simple molecules to proteins, and the nature of the equated proton in solid hydrates (and in the vapour phase). The advent of neutron diffraction, coupled with major instrumental and theoretical developments has led to insights into the structure, energetics and dynamics of hydrated solids.

A common focus will be the central position adopted by water in the systems and processes described.
