Description
Excelic Press Field Hydrogeology by Hassane Jarar Oulidi
Water is one of our most precious natural resources. Without it, there would be no life on earth. Hydrology has evolved as a science in response to the need to understand the complex water system of the earth and help solve water problems. Hydrologic data is needed for a variety of water studies. For example, in studies to assess the expected impacts of a waste-water treatment plant on the health of a river system, water samples are collected for laboratory analysis of various constituents.
This edition ‘Field Hydrogeology’ brings together the most up-to-date research results and reviews and comprehensive guide to completing a hydrogeological study. Field methods, techniques and equipment used to study hydrologic systems including streams, riparian areas, hillslopes, and watersheds are explored. Field studies aimed at obtaining a three-dimensional understanding of groundwater systems are described. Its peer-reviewed research articles integrate subsurface hydrology and geology with associated disciplines, like as geochemistry, geophysics, geomorphology, geobiology, surface-water hydrology, tectonics, numerical modeling, economics, and sociology.
Enriched with case studies and field research to aid understanding, and a specific emphasis on applied practical methods, this is a valuable guide for students taking courses and eager to research in Hydrogeology or field course session in Geology, Earth Sciences, Hydrogeology as well as researchers and practitioners.
