In the seven years since the publication of the first edition of Sustainable Practices in Geoenvironmental Engineering, the combination of population growth and increased exploitation of renewable and non-renewable natural resources has added increased stresses on the quality and health of the geoenvironment. This is especially true when viewed in
Various hydraulic computer models have been developed to calculate contaminant infiltration rates. Some of these models include (a) hydraulic evaluation of landfill performance (HELP) model (Schroeder et al., 1994), (b) HYDRUS (2D/3D).
This volume is a compilation on issues related to sustainable practices in geo-environmental engineering, particularly as applying to developing nations such as India.
This book comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on Sustainable Civil Engineering Practices (ICSCEP 2019).
Proceedings of the 2014 Geo-Congress, held in Atlanta, Georgia, February 23-26, 2014. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE.
Because these covered surfaces prevent infiltration of rainwater and pond water into the subsurface, replenishment of the underlying groundwater is denied and groundwater levels may consequently be lowered.
