Providing an introduction to the crucially important topic of
groundwater, this text covers all major fields of hydrogeology and
includes outlines of the occurrence of groundwater in various rock
types, the movement and storage of groundwater, the formulation of
groundwater balances, the development of groundwater chemistry, as
well as the practical application of hydrogeology for groundwater
development. Following a unique systems approach to describe and
connect its various elements, the text also explores a large
selection of examples of groundwater cases from various parts of
the world. In addition, theoretical sections and examples are
illustrated with a number of drawings, photos and computer
printouts. Suitable for education in hydrogeology at postgraduate
and graduate level, the text is also a useful reference tool for
professionals and decision-makers involved in water or
water-related activities. In the revised paperback edition more
attention is paid to the processes in the unsaturated zone,
especially those relating to groundwater recharge. Also, the
investigation methods are highlighted in the sections where the
related theory is dealt with, and they are not presented in the
last chapter on groundwater management. The References and
Bibliography section is also extended, some figures are improved,
and the inevitable 'typing errors' are corrected as well. In the
third edition, a more formal basis for the hydro-chemical processes
described in the chapter on groundwater chemistry has been added.
Mass balances and the principles of dispersion and retardation are
introduced. Additional illustrations are provided, also explaining
the processes occurring along streamlines. Consult:

the book, the author and available software.
