Your Guide to Effective Groundwater Management Groundwater
Assessment, Modeling, and Management discusses a variety of
groundwater problems and outlines the solutions needed to sustain
surface and ground water resources on a global scale. Contributors
from around the world lend their expertise and provide an
international perspective on groundwater management. They address
the management of groundwater resources and pollution, waste water
treatment methods, and the impact of climate change on groundwater
and water availability (specifically in arid and semi-arid regions
such as India and Africa). Incorporating management with science
and modeling, the book covers all areas of groundwater resource
assessment, modeling, and management, and combines hands-on
applications with relevant theory. For Water Resource Managers and
Decision Makers The book describes techniques for the assessment of
groundwater potential, pollution, prevention, and remedial
measures, and includes a new approach for groundwater modeling
based on connections (network theory). Approximately 30 case
studies and six hypothetical studies are introduced reflecting a
range of themes that include: groundwater basics and the derivation
of groundwater flow equations, exploration and assessment, aquifer
parameterization, augmentation of aquifer, water and environment,
water and agriculture, the role of models and their application,
and water management policies and issues. The book describes remote
sensing (RS) applications, geographical information systems (GIS),
and electrical resistivity methods to delineate groundwater
potential zones. It also takes a look at: Inverse modeling
(pilot-points method) Simulation optimization models Radionuclide
migration studies through mass transport modeling Modeling for
mapping groundwater potential Modeling for vertical 2-D and 3-D
groundwater flow Groundwater Assessment, Modeling, and Management
explores the management of water resources and the impact of
climate change on groundwater. Expert contributors provide
practical information on hydrologic engineering and groundwater
resources management for students, researchers, scientists, and
other practicing professionals in environmental engineering,
hydrogeology, irrigation, geophysics, and environmental science.
