商品描述

This book reviews groundwater quality and its major global contaminants, and collects the latest advances in the analysis, remediation, risk assessment, and hydrogeochemistry of groundwater in countries such as Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Kazakhstan, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and the USA. This book mainly focuses on the major arid and semi-arid areas where groundwater is scarce and highly polluted with geogenic and anthropogenic contaminants and the recharge to the groundwater is negligible due to limited rainfall.

Divided into 2 parts, the book starts by covering topics like assessment and protection of groundwater in arid and semi-arid regions, groundwater pollution, and contamination risk assessment. Particular attention is given to the application of environmental isotopes in groundwater studies and how anthropogenic activities impact groundwater quality, the impact of irrigation reservoirs in groundwater and soil quality, and how artificial intelligence is applied to forecast groundwater quality. In the second part of this book, readers will find more about the major global contaminants of groundwater in arid and semi-arid areas, including a geochemical analysis of fluoride and nitrate contamination.

Supported by regional case studies, this book appeals to researchers, scholars, and professionals working in the field of groundwater contamination and remediation and is also an important account for policymakers.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書回顧了地下水質量及其主要的全球污染物,並收集了在阿爾及利亞、埃及、加納、哈薩克斯坦、摩洛哥、沙特阿拉伯和美國等國家的地下水分析、修復、風險評估和水文地球化學方面的最新進展。本書主要關注地下水稀缺且受到地質和人為污染物嚴重污染的主要乾旱和半乾旱地區,由於降雨有限,對地下水的補充極少。

本書分為兩部分,首先涵蓋了乾旱和半乾旱地區地下水評估和保護、地下水污染和污染風險評估等主題。特別關注了環境同位素在地下水研究中的應用,以及人為活動對地下水質量的影響,灌溉水庫對地下水和土壤質量的影響,以及人工智能在預測地下水質量方面的應用。在本書的第二部分中,讀者將更多地了解乾旱和半乾旱地區地下水的主要全球污染物,包括對氟化物和硝酸鹽污染的地球化學分析。

本書通過區域案例研究的支持,吸引了在地下水污染和修復領域工作的研究人員、學者和專業人士,也是政策制定者的重要參考資料。
