The art and science of groundwater age dating
Traditionally concerned with the flow rate calculation, recharge
estimation, and renewability of groundwater resources, the
application of groundwater age data has now expanded to include
such issues as the calibration of groundwater flow and transport
models, the management of dry land salinity, and the study of
groundwater vulnerability and pollution. In short, thanks to both
technical developments in the field and worldwide concerns about
water resources, the study of groundwater age has coalesced into a
potent and much respected field. In this comprehensive book, the
field of groundwater age dating receives the major reference it
needs and deserves.
Written by three leading experts in the field, "Groundwater Age"
aggregates, in one volume, state-of-the-art knowledge concerning
groundwater dating, including its historical development,
principles, applications, various methods, and likely future

basics of groundwater dating science The history of groundwater
dating, including pioneers and key contributors to the field
Applications and uses of age data for consulting companies and
resource managers Various methods for age dating young, old, and
very old groundwaters New mathematical approaches Modeling of
groundwater age and residence time distributions Thoughts on and
suggestions for current practices and future progress
Presenting modern knowledge and cutting-edge research simply
