Contaminated Ground Water and Sediments: Modeling for Management and Remediation provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of the theory and practice of computer modeling as applied to the monitoring and remediation of contaminants in the subsurface. It also explores important theoretical and technical issues, methodological controversies, and future research needs. It also covers four "hot" topics in subsurface contamination and remediation: discharge of contaminated groundwater into surface waters; fate and transport of contaminated sediments; optimization modeling for remediation and monitoring; and simulation of halogenated hydrocarbons in the subsurface.
