Urban Geology - Process-Oriented Concepts for Adaptive and Integrated Resource Management (Hardcover, 2011): Peter... Urban Geology - Process-Oriented Concepts for Adaptive and Integrated Resource Management (Hardcover, 2011)
Peter Huggenberger, Jannis Epting
R2,940 Discovery Miles 29 400 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Urban subsurface resources and particularly urban groundwater are vulnerable to environmental impacts, and their rational management is of major importance. In this book a multidisciplinary team of specialists and scientists presents innovative process-oriented approaches to the sustainable use of these resources. The included case studies from northwestern Switzerland describe representative environments and are relevant for urban areas in general. They illustrate the protection of groundwater; river restoration; engineering and hydrogeological questions related to urban infrastructure and management concepts; as well as monitoring, modeling and remediation strategies for contaminated sites; problems caused by karst in urban environments; the use of shallow geothermal energy; and natural hazards such as flood events and earthquakes.

It is demonstrated that modern quantitative earth sciences can contribute significantly in finding solutions concerning the sustainable use of subsurface resources in urban environments.

The book is an invaluable source of information for hydrogeologists, geologists, urban planners, water supply engineers, and environmental agencies.

Mikroorganismen kommen naturlicherweise im Grund- und Trinkwasser vor. Kritisch wird es dann, wenn pathogene Keime im Trinkwasser auftreten. Das vorliegende Buch gibt einen umfassenden Einblick in den Wissensstand zum Transport von Mikroorganismen im Grundwasser und zeigt die Bedeutung der pathogenen Mikroorganismen fur die menschliche Gesundheit sowie das Epidemienrisiko auf. Es stellt neuste und zukunftige Nachweismethoden vor und bietet Losungsstrategien fur die Erhaltung einer guten Trinkwasserqualitat. Es wird die Komplexitat der Trinkwassergewinnung anhand von Beispielen erlautert und fur das Thema Grund- und Trinkwasser sensibilisiert. Die Einzigartigkeit liegt darin, dass die Aspekte vom Eintrag von Mikroorganismen in den Untergrund bis zu den technischen Fragen der Aufbereitung des Rohwassers fur die Trinkwassernutzung themenubergreifend dargestellt werden. Das Buch richtet sich an Fachleute aus den Bereichen Mikrobiologie, Umweltwissenschaften und Hydrogeologie, aber auch an Praktiker in den Wasserversorgungen, die sich mit Grund- und Trinkwasser, Wassermanagement und Wasseraufbereitung beschaftigen."
