Environmental Modeling: Fate and Transport of Pollutants in Water, Air, and Soil
Combines fundamental concepts of pollutant fate and transport with chemical principles in a modern text which assesses environmental quality. Features examples from a wide diversity of water quality issues such as conventional pollutants in rivers, eutrophication of lakes, and toxic organic chemicals and heavy metals in surface and groundwaters. Demonstrates how to develop and solve mathematical models for a variety of chemical pollutants. Current concerns over atmospheric deposition, groundwater contamination and global change are also discussed.
