The book will include chapters which will span from the role of geochemistry in the environment in general to the specific investigations on site characterization (dealing with sampling strategy, analytical procedures and problems). Specific articles will deal with health problems related to environment pollution, waste disposal, data base management, and illustration of specific case histories for characterization and remediation of brownfield sites.
* Comprehensive analysis providing background information on geochemistry in general through to specific investigations
* Provides practical insight through case study material
* Informs and updates students and practitioners on hot topics, latest trends and developments

Environmental Geochemistry: Site Characterization, Data Analysis and Case Histories, Second Edition, reviews the role of geochemistry in the environment and details state-of-the-art applications of these principles in the field, specifically in pollution and remediation situations. Chapters cover both philosophy and procedures, as well as applications, in an array of issues in environmental geochemistry including health problems related to environment pollution, waste disposal and data base management. This updated edition also includes illustrations of specific case histories of site characterization and remediation of brownfield sites.
