About this ebook

Groundwater Science is a timely, current, and comprehensive presentation of groundwater hydrology that integrates chemistry, physics, geology, and calculus. With the input of students and other hydrology instructors, the author has developed a text reference that will be appreciated by students and professors alike. The book covers recent contamination topics such as non-aqueous-phase liquids (NAPLs), complex solute transport processes, and remediation. It contains clear explanations, two-color figures, case studies, and worked examples throughout. This book is recommended for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in hydrology, geology, environmental science, and civil engineering departments as well as for scientists and engineers in the groundwater field. - Integrates up-to-date material on field methods and flow modeling methods - Covers recent contamination topics including non-aqueous-phase liquids (NAPLs), complex solute transport processes, and remediation - Presents clear explanations, two-color figures, case studies, and worked examples throughout
