This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises the selected papers from the 1st Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1), Tunisia 2018. The volume is of interest to all researchers and practitioners in the fields of Hydrology, Hydrogeology, Hydrochemistry, Water Resources and Hydrologic Engineering. Water is a dynamic, finite, and vulnerable but resilient natural resource to be protected in an environmentally sustainable manner. Water systems in different frameworks requires a comprehensive understanding of climatology, geology, hydrogeology, hydrochemistry, hydrodynamics, and surface hydrology. In addition, it is highlighted the role of the variability and climate change in water systems. Furthermore, water has a vital significance to the entire socio-economic sector. This volume offers an overview of the state-of-the-art related to water science and technology in model regions in Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia and America, but mainly focuses on the Mediterranean environment and surrounding regions. It gives new insights on characterisation, evaluation, quality, management, protection, modelling on environmental hydrology, groundwater, hydrochemistry, sustainable water resources studies and hydrologic engineering approaches by international researchers. Main topics include: 1. Hydrology, Climatology and Water-Related Ecosystems 2. Hydrochemistry and Isotopic Hydrology 3. Groundwater Assessment and Management: mapping, exploration, abstraction and modelling 4. Water Resources Sustainability and Climate Change 5. Hydrologic Engineering and Urban Groundwater

Download or read book Crisis Management of Chronic Pollution written by Magalie Lesueur Jannoyer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crisis Management of Chronic Pollution: Contaminated Soil and Human Health deals with a long term pollution problem, generated by the former use of organochlorine pesticides. Through a case study of the chlordecone pollution in the French West Indies, the authors illustrate a global and systemic mobilization of research institutions and public services. This "management model", together with its major results, the approach and lessons to be learned, could be useful to other situations. This book gathers all the works that have been carried out over the last ten years or more and links them to decision makers’ actions and stakeholders’ expectations. This reference fills a gap in the literature on chronic pollution.

Download or read book La Cara be donn es environnementales written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2006 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A l'interface des continents nord et sud américains, la Caraïbe se caractérise par de grandes disparités sociétales et biologiques. A la pluralité des environnements physiques correspond une diversité floristique, faunistique, écosystémique et paysagère. Ressource primordiale pour les Amérindiens, les écosystèmes terrestres et marins sont aujourd'hui à l'intersection d'intérêts divers relevant de l'économique et du culturel ou encore de l'aménagement territorial. Les spécificités écologiques, qui sont fonction des différentes terres caribéennes, sont à la base d'usages nouveaux susceptibles de participer au développement économique, par exemple le tourisme. A cette histoire singulière, façonnée par l'action des hommes, s'ajoutent les incommodités naturelles telluriques et atmosphériques, dont les effets directs et indirects ont érigé certaines composantes de cette partie de la biosphère en terre à risques. Les nuisances de toutes sortes, inhérentes au fonctionnement de ces sociétés, sont des freins au développement maîtrisé ou soutenable. Pour l'essentiel, les économies relèvent des propriétés du mal-développement et peuvent entraîner, dans des cas extrêmes, un chaos politique et social. Les conséquences pour les milieux biophysiques sont souvent graves et s'apparentent à un écocide (Haïti par exemple). Le but premier de ce numéro de Terres d'Amérique est d'explorer les différentes facettes du fonctionnement des sociétés caribéennes ainsi que leurs dynamiques d'interface au regard des environnements physiques et biologiques.
