The interaction between environment and health is far more complex than is commonly understood. In particular, little attention has been paid to the interaction of different pollutants in the human body as well as in the environment. Even low level exposure over a period of time to a complex cocktail of pollutants in air, water, food and consumer ...
"Interacting Processes in Soil Science" focuses on coupled processes in soil. Topics covered in this important volume include the effects of inorganic salts upon water flow, modeling of sorption, transport and transformation of organic solutes, and the effects of microorganisms on silicate clay minerals. This book presents studies and approaches ...

This detailed text is designed to provide comprehensive information on the late-1990s status of the application of fractal geometry in soil science, and on prospects for its future use. Practical applications include plotting water conductivity through different soil types, studying plant root systems, and charting the interactions of microbes ...
Mathematical modeling has become in recent years an essential tool for the prediction of environmental change and for the development of sustainable policies. Yet, many of the uncertainties associated with modeling efforts appear poorly understood by many, especially by policy makers. This book attempts for the first time to cover the full range ...
Since the "pioneering" time of the mid-1980s, the rate of adoption of in situ bioremediation strategies has been stagnating. To paraphrase Mark Twain, however, news of the demise of bioremediation may have been exaggerated; there is still a widespread belief that bioremediation remains a viable and promising technology. Among the many topics ...
