It is aimed at land use planners, water managers, the environmental industry, regional and local environmental protection councils and students studying hydrogeology and environmental sciences.
Download or read book Vulnerability of Soil and Groundwater to Pollutants written by W. van Duijvenbooden and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 1180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expansion and intensification of human activities give cause to dispersion of pollutants in the subsurface environment. Today, acid rain, hazardous chemical wastes, fertilizers, pesticides, solvents, manure and sewage sludge are, amongst other things," a serious threat to soil and groundwater. In numerous cases they have a severe impact on the quality of these natural resources. Therefore, existing groundwater and soil protection policies and strategies have to be reconsidered, and new ones have to be developed.

Download or read book Analysis of Hydrogeochemical Vulnerability written by Constantin Moraru and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph instructs the reader on how to analyze the hydrogeochemical vulnerability. It introduces notions of geochemical signals, points of migration of pollutants in the unsaturated zone, and new hydrogeochemical classifications. Three test sites in the USA, Germany, and Moldova are described as case studies accompanied by illustrative data. The authors presuppose for future readers only the background mathematics and elementary knowledge of hydrogeology. The presented methodology is both for local and regional assessments. It is simple, does not need implication of high qualification specialists and can be applied to test the groundwater quality. The book is useful for undergraduate, graduate, master, and PhD students as well as water quality specialists, ecologists and geology professionals.
