This volume provides in-depth coverage of such topics as multi-reservoir
system operation theory and practice, management of aquifer systems
connected to streams using semi-analytical models, one-dimensional model
of water quality and aquatic ecosystem-ecotoxicology in river systems,
environmental and health impacts of hydraulic fracturing and shale gas,
bioaugmentation for water resources protection, wastewater renovation by
flotation for water pollution control, determination of receiving
water's reaeration coefficient in the presence of salinity for water
quality management, sensitivity analysis for stream water quality
management, river ice process, and computer-aided mathematical modeling
of water properties. This critical volume will serve as a valuable
reference work for advanced undergraduate and graduate students,
designers of water resources systems, and scientists and researchers.
The goals of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series are: (1)
to cover entire environmental fields, including air and noise pollution
control, solid waste processing and resource recovery, physicochemical
treatment processes, biological treatment processes, biotechnology,
biosolids management, flotation technology, membrane technology,
desalination technology, water resources, natural control processes,
radioactive waste disposal, hazardous waste management, and thermal
pollution control; and (2) to employ a multimedia approach to
environmental conservation and protection since air, water, soil and
energy are all interrelated.
