内容説明

Hydrogeology is a crucial and increasingly topical subject. Groundwater is one of the world's vital resources, providing a large proportion of the water supplies in many countries. Although naturally of a very high quality, groundwater is being insidiously polluted by the careless and ignorant actions of man. Any significant development in hydrogeology of the last few years have originated in Britain. This book reflects the concern of specialists about the deterioration of groundwater quality as a result of waste disposal, acid rain, drainage, and agricultural practices. Further chapters discuss use feasibility of harnessing geothermal energy and the repercussions of deep disposal of nuclear waste. Recent research and practical methodologies used in hydrogeology are described, and consideration is given to recent management changes in the water industry and the integration of groundwater development with other water sources. This book should be of interest to all who are concerned with the development of groundwater resources and with maintaining their quality.
