Presents an examination of the role of environmental hydrogeology in solving challenging environmental problems, from local issues to global perils. This work covers topics including the geological aspects of disposal sites, surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology and wells and environmental impacts and the hydrological system.
Looming global threats such as overpopulation, pollution, ozone depletion, and other major risks to the planet have created an increasing need for well-trained, experienced geoscientists who understand environmental hydrology and can apply its precepts to tackle these intimidating planetary problems.
Written by the senior staff of a respected environmental consulting firm, Environmental Hydrogeology is a complete introduction to this fast-growing field. Geared to both practicing geoscientists and students, it provides a thorough examination of the role of environmental hydrogeology in solving today's challenging environmental problems, from local issues to global perils. Topics covered include the geological aspects of disposal sites, surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology and wells, environmental impacts and the hydrological system, and more. This text/reference also includes types, sources, and properties of waste products, and proposes waste management programs for groundwater protection.
The accompanying TPASCAL modeling software includes a solved problem to demonstrate the use of this powerful program.
