Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last twenty years there have been new developments in the field of hydrogeology and an enlargement of the scope into environmental concerns. This dictionary incorporates the terms that have become important in the vocabulary of environmental hydrogeology to do justice to these new developments. It is in part a revised and enlarged edition of "Elsevier's Dictionary of Hydrogeology" which was published in 1969. Approximately two thirds of the material in this dictionary is new.The terms covered deal with the geology of groundwater within the framework of the hydrologic cycle, geohydrology, contaminant hydrology, computer application to groundwater and subsurface pollution problems, environmental implications of groundwater use, regulatory aspects of groundwater protection, wellhead protection programs, interaction of groundwater systems with biogeochemical cycles, geochemistry of natural waters and contaminant chemistry, and water resources management.The group of readers for which this work is intended are: earth scientists (earth-surface processes, hydrology, groundwater geology, groundwater flow, contaminant hydrology); environmental engineers (waste management and disposal, remedial activities in contaminated sites, environmental protection strategies, monitoring of pollution); environmental regulators, legislators, administrators, and consulting engineers in hydrogeology and hydrology.

Book excerpt: This dictionary contains terms in the areas of hydrology, hydrogeology, environmental science and related disciplines. It has been compiled to facilitate an understanding of the literature on water problems for English-speaking and Russian-speaking specialists and to promote their personal communication.When selecting terms for the dictionary, emphasis was placed on concepts related to the study, management, and protection of natural waters as an environmental component. The dictionary also covers some terms defining concepts of allied sciences used in studying water resources. This dictionary represents the modern level of knowledge in the areas of hydrology, hydrogeology, environmental science, geology, geophysics, geochemistry, well-drilling technology, soil science, agricultural chemistry, and climatology, including modeling and methods of prediction. It is of interest to a broad community of specialists - hydrologists, hydrogeologists, environmentalists, hydrochemists, hydraulic engineers, and water managers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scientific disciplines of hydrology and hydrogeology are expanding as the Earth's water is being recognized by governments and individuals as a shrinking resource—no entity can afford to take water for granted. At the present time, there is no single reference source for definitions. The Encyclopedic Dictionary of Hydrogeology is a practical, comprehensive reference guide with complete definitions of terms in hydrogeology and other fields closely related to water practices. This concise reference not only defines terms and concepts, but also provides a clear explanation of key elements so that an in-depth understanding of processes may be obtained. With more than 2,000 entries, from "absolute permeability" to the "Z-R relationship", this dictionary features the most up-to-date vocabulary in hydrology and hydrogeology. This dictionary would be of use to practicing scientists and professionals in all the fields of water science More than 340 graphs, tables and diagrams complement the entries in order to clarify terms, methods, or processes Essential reference for students, academics, consultants, and practitioners in hydrology, hydrogeology, environmental engineering, environmental law, and the government

In addition to the quantitative and physical aspects of hydrology and water management, due attention has been paid to chemical and biological properties and qualitative aspects of surface and subsurface waters. The scope is relatively wide, also including relevant terms from science and engineering. As far as the depth of the coverage goes, some limitations had to be set, for example, on terms related to sedimentology and oceanography. The scope does not extend beyond the tidal limit, i.e. terms on seawater, sea waves and tides are included only as far as they affect the quantities or qualities of inland waters.
