Hydrogeology is a topical and growing subject as the earth's water
resources become scarcer and more vulnerable. More than half of the
surface area of continents is covered with hard rocks of low
permiability. This book deals comprehensively with the fundamental
principles for understanding the hydrogeological characteristics of
rocks, as well as exploration techniques and assessment. It also
provides in depth discussion on structural mapping, remote sensing,
geophysical exploration, GIS, groundwater flow modelling and
contaminant transport, field hydraulic testing including tracer
tests, groundwater quality, geothermal reservoirs, managed aquifer
recharge, and resources assessment and management. Hydrogeological
aspects of various lithology groups, including crystalline rocks,
volcanic rocks, carbonate rocks and clastic formations have been
dealt with separately, using and discussing examples from all over
the world. It will be an invaluable text book cum reference source
for postgraduate students, researchers, exploration scientists and
engineers engaged in the field of groundwater development in
fractured rocks. Applied Hydrogeology of Fractured Rocks - Second
Edition is thoroughly revised and extended with a new chapter,
updated sections, many new examples, and expanded and updated
references.
