Riverbank Filtration (RBF) is a popular source of high quality water for public water supply. This book provides guidance in the design and operation of RBF facilities. Providing data and case histories from dozens of installations, it covers topics such as surface stream hydrology, particle clogging, and biological/geochemical processes.
Fiordland is one of the planet's great wilderness areas, where monumental landscapes combine with a mosaic of miniature worlds. Located on the southwest coast of New Zealand, much of its landscape was formed by great valleys carved out by glaciers which are now half-drowned. This book is for travellers, nature-lovers and scientists alike.
Mud volcanism has been recognized to be generally related to hydrocarbon deposits, seismotectonic activity and to orogenic belts. This book aims to link together knowledge obtained in the observation of mud volcanism and local seismicity. It considers Geological, Seismological, Geophysical and Geochemical parameters.
Details development in early warning monitoring of anthropogenic pollution of soil and water.
Aims to summarize and critically assess the status, development trends and needs of three basic defensive elements that safeguard the quality and environmental safety of soil and water/sediments: early warning monitoring, protection and remediation measures.
Success story highlighting role of peasant farmers in cotton revolution in Cote d'Ivoire.
Jan Mayen is a volcanic island surrounded by the deep Greenland, Iceland and Norwegian Seas. This book addresses problems to raise an interest for doing research on this island and in its waters. It recommends how the international scientific community may gain access to this challenging arena for local, regional and Global research.
Focuses on the origin, development, interactions, and migrations of the Scythians, and their relationships with the environment of 1st millennium BC. This book focuses on Eurasia where apart from global-scale environmental changes, local environmental change, including the physical landscape of forest, steppe, forest-steppe and so on changed.
Celebrating Frits Agterberg's half-century of publication activity in geomathematics, this volume's 28 papers, written by his friends and colleagues, treat a variety of subjects of current interest, including: spatial analysis in mineral resource assessment.
Intends to develop common language among scientists working in the field of Phytoremediation.

Shows the advances in drinking water treatment in the United States, biological control in water-cooling towers, analytical control of drinking water quality, and the use of radionuclides for monitoring global contamination.
Tree species differ in their effects on soil properties and biogeochemical cycles. This book examines the state of knowledge of the effects of tree species on soils, considering evidence from broad natural gradients in species distributions, and from 'common garden' experiments where several species have been planted on the same site.
