Contamination of the Groundwater Environment is written at a level designed to provide technical insights to a broad spectrum of professionals involved with various aspects of the environmental field, including scientists, engineers, regulators, researchers, students, and interested non-specialists as well. This book presents the reader with the core principles of groundwater science, vadose zone hydrology, and the dynamic behavior of hazardous substances in both systems. Furthermore, the book explores how physical, chemical, and biological mechanisms interrelate to affect contaminants transport, behavior, and remediation within the subsurface.
