The Handbook of Groundwater Engineering

Editat de John H. Cushman, Daniel M. Tartakovsky
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 noi 2016
This new edition adds several new chapters and is thoroughly updated to include data on new topics such as hydraulic fracturing, CO2 sequestration, sustainable groundwater management, and more. Providing a complete treatment of the theory and practice of groundwater engineering, this new handbook also presents a current and detailed review of how to model the flow of water and the transport of contaminants both in the unsaturated and saturated zones, covers the protection of groundwater, and the remediation of contaminated groundwater.

Recenzii

"This is one of the best books in groundwater science and engineering. It is comprehensive both in terms of variety of subject areas and the material covered for each subject. It includes theory, modelling, and applications. So, it can be used as textbook, reference book, and even as a book for design guidelines. It contains basic concepts as well as advanced and state-of-the-art materials. It is a must-have book for students, researchers, consultants, academics, and practitioners."
— S.M. Hassanizadeh, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
"This is the ideal text for students and professionals who are interested in learning the subsurface hydrology and advanced application in groundwater engineering."
—Kuo-Chin Hsu, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan
"I see two major attractive features of this book: first, a broad coverage of the topic of groundwater hydrology, second, chapters made by outstanding researchers in the field that provide on the edge methodologies and results. This is a familiar material for me which confirms that this book may serve as a state-of-the-art presentation of groundwater physics. As such, I would certainly like to have it on my bookshelves, and I would also strongly recommend that to my students."
—Michel Quintard, Institut de Mécanique des Fluides de Toulouse, France
"The book is encyclopedic in its scope and is a valuable resource for both practitioners and researchers. The handbook covers traditional topics, as well as cutting edge topics on new emerging groundwater problems. There is no other comprehensive book that includes new topics such as multiscale methods, hydraulic tomography, scaling, anomalous dispersion, CO2 sequestration, climate change, and ecohydrology."
—Albert J. Valocchi, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA
"I find the materials very concise and exceptionally well-written. …the book is an encyclopedia for beginners, and a catalogue for advanced readers; but also readable to general audience with a basic level of scientific training."
—Peng Wang, Beihang University, Beijing, China
"The handbook presents a nice and complete review on the most important topics related to groundwater hydrology. I do research in the field of porous media and I know very well the quality of the research published by the different scientists in charge for the writing of the handbook’s chapters. Since theoretical aspects and well as advanced and evolving approaches are described, the handbook is suitable for students that want to approach the ‘porous medium world’ as well as researchers that want to be updated on the novel issues concerning porous medium investigation and modeling."
—Monica Moroni, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy
"The book gives a nice ‘big-picture’ introduction to the classical and state-of-the-art concepts used in hydrology. Ideal for anyone entering a hydrological field without the specific technological background. I work with graduate students and researchers in other areas, and this book is an ideal resource for bridging fields."
— Lynn Schreyer, Washington State University, USA
"…a well-rounded tool useful to academicians, modelers, and engineering practitioners alike. I appreciate the very thorough approach to groundwater engineering. I am confident the materials presented can act as a reference for both academics and practitioners, and thus reach to a broad audience. The index is complete, and so is the coverage of classical and innovative topics."
— Vittorio Di Federico, University in Bologna, Italy
"I am sure that students, teachers, researchers and practitioners concerned with groundwater analysis will find much in this book that is instructive, useful and timely."
— Gerardo Severino, University of Naples Federico II, Italy
"This book could be an interesting addition to any hydrogeological library. It would be a good complement to most groundwater textbooks, particularly by providing additional material on modeling concepts and field investigations. A good overview of some advanced and emerging topics is provided."
