This book uses common language and illustrations to cover pragmatic methods in depth. It is ideal for a text for courses in aquifer test analysis as well as a reference for groundwater professionals. Chapters detail Theisian, recovery, step-drawdown, product well, and well field analysis. Additional chapters provide methods to estimate the storage coefficient and simple modeling equations that can predict drawdown over time and distance once transmissivity and the storage coefficient have been determined. This is a condensed version of the book Applied Ground Water Hydrology and Well Hydraulics, 2nd edition, but features additional information and more equations to better access aquifer test data in the field, office, or classroom.

A balanced presentation of what is known—and not known—Barrier Systems for Environmental Contaminant Containment and Treatment provides a comprehensive report on the current state of the science and technology of waste containment. The book addresses the materials used in barriers, defines their properties, and explores how they perform in the field, as well as describing available technologies and their applications. Also included are two case studies that demonstrate the value of validating field performance.

Gain an understanding of biogeochemical cycling in groundwater systems with this multidisciplinary approach to the impact of microorganisms and microbial processes on groundwater systems. The updated edition, offering many new advances in the field, begins with an overview of microbiology, covering the growth, metabolism, genetics, and ecology of microorganisms found in subsurface environments. The second part of the book offers a hydrologic perspective on how microbial processes affect groundwater geochemistry in pristine systems. It also provides the different classes of groundwater systems and gives an overview of sampling techniques.

The book presents chemical principles that are essential for understanding environmental problems and then shows how these principles can be applied to real-world problems. It does so by including a number of case studies in each chapter. The book is process oriented, emphasizing the tools needed to understand environmental problems.
Among the topics are extensive materials on the isotopic and mineralogical aspects of environmental issues along with a chapter on the atmosphere. Extensive sets of end-of-chapter problems enable users to ensure that they know the subject matter before they go on.
