Description
This book offers an introduction to the geochemical processes in the subsurface that produce the composition of groundwater found in an aquifer. It covers the basic processes, from mineral dissolution and precipitation to adsorption/desorption, an understanding of which provides investigators with the knowledge to interpret the chemical evolution of groundwater and the tools to develop practical, effective remediation methods. The book also discusses the application of geochemical modeling for natural and contaminated sites. Completely updated, this second edition includes several new chapters and a new glossary.
