This book was released on 2005-10-31 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containment and permeable reactive barriers have come full circle as an acceptable environmental control technology during the past 30 years. As interest shifted back toward containment in the 1990s, the industry found itself relying largely on pre-1980s technology. Fortunately, in the past 10 years important advances have occurred in several areas

Download or read book Remote Sensing Methods for Waste Site Subsurface Investigations and Monitoring written by LG. McMillion and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detection and monitoring of subsurface contamination at waste disposal or storage sites can be expensive and uncertain with traditional sampling and measurement techniques. Remote sensing methods can greatly aid characterization of the subsurface and detection of contaminants in the vicinity of waste deposits. Inexpensive aerial remote sensing, such as photography or infrared scanning, can indicate subsurface contaminant movement and structure. Resistivity surveys and other surface remote sensor applications develop further details on subsurface geology and plumes. Most importantly, development of detailed vertical profiles with subsurface sensors provides indispensable data for ultimate characterization of the subsurface environment. Subsurface geophysical remote sensing techniques commonly used for deep subsurface characterization associated with petroleum or mineral exploration must be modified to be used effectively in the shallow depth range associated with surface disposal or storage sites.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US DOE is endeavoring to clean up contamination created by the disposal of chemical and nuclear waste on the Oak Ridge Reservation (ORR), Tennessee, with an emphasis on minimizing off-site migration of contaminated surface and ground water. The task is complicated by inadequate disposal records and by the complexity of the local geology. Remote sensing data, including aerial photography and geophysics, have played an important role in the ORR site characterization. Are there advantages to collecting remote sensing data using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's)? In this paper, I will discuss the applications of UAV's being explored at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) under the sponsorship of the Department of Energy's Office of Science and technology. These applications are : aerial photography, magnetic mapping, and Very Low Frequency (VLF) electromagnetic mapping.

Download or read book Environmental Geology Workbook written by Jack W. Travis and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2019-02-27 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental geologists use a wide range of geologic data to solve environmental problems and conflicts. Professionals and academics in this field need to know how to gather information on such diverse conditions as soil type, rock structure, and groundwater flow and then utilize it to understand geological site conditions. Field surveys, maps, well logs, bore holes, ground-penetrating radar, aerial photos, geologic literature, and more help to reveal potential natural hazards in an area or how to remediate contaminated sites. This new workbook presents accessible activities designed to highlight key concepts in environmental geology and give students an idea of what they need to know to join the workforce as an environmental geologist, engineering geologist, geological engineer, or geotechnical engineer. Exercises cover: • Preparation, data collection, and data analysis • Descriptive and engineering properties of earth materials • Basic tools used in conjunction with geoenvironmental investigations • Forces operating on earth materials within the earth • Inanimate forces operating on earth materials at the surface of the earth • Human activities operating on earth materials Each activity encourages students to think critically and develop deeper knowledge of environmental geology.
