This book gives readers detailed explanations of the techniques used to map and monitor the built and natural environment and how that data, collected from a wide range of scales and cost options, is translated into an image or visual experience. It is written with technical, professional, and academic readers in mind.

"Hydrogeology: Principles and Practice" provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of hydrogeology and the significance of groundwater in the terrestrial aquatic environment. Earlier chapters explain the fundamental physical and chemical principles of hydrogeology, and later chapters feature groundwater investigation techniques and contaminant hydrogeology. A unique feature of the book is a chapter on the application of environmental isotopes and noble gases in the interpretation of aquifer evolution. The last chapter discusses groundwater resources and environmental management, and examines the role of groundwater in integrated river basin management, including the possible impacts of climate change. Throughout the text, boxes are used to explain special topics and to illustrate international case studies. The appendices provide useful reference material and include review questions and exercises to develop the reader''s knowledge and problem-solving skills in hydrogeology. This accessible textbook is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students in earth and environmental sciences taking a course in hydrogeology or groundwater science. "Hydrogeology: Principles and Practice" provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of hydrogeology and the significance of groundwater in the terrestrial aquatic environment.

Este texto tiene como finalidad proporcionar las claves al alumno para la comprensión de la genesis del relieve, de su organización y de su tipología guiada por las diferentes condiciones bioclimáticas. Aporta los conceptos basicos que permiten conocer, identificar, cartografiar e interpretar las distintas formas que articulan la superficie terrestre y hace una valoracion de la influencia de los procesos geologicos externos en la actividad humana. La Geomorfologia es una la de las areas imprescindibles para las especialidades en topografia y geologia en la licenciatura de Ingenieria asi como de la nueva Ciencias ambientales. En nuestro catalogo no existe ningun texto de esta indole y viene a completar libros de reciente publicacion como Ciencias de la Tierra, Ingenieria Geologica o Recursos de la Tierra.

Each entry is detailed and scientifically sound, yet accessible for students and non-scientists. This large-format reference is enchanced with hundreds of full-color photographs, maps, and drawings from the authors' own work, which provide unique images of the underground environment. The Encyclopedia of Caves is an essential interdisciplinary resource for scientists, students, and caving enthusiasts. * Presents a cross-section of contemporary knowledge of caves ranging from biology, geology, and human uses to exploration techniques * Brings together 107 in-depth articles from respected international authors * Showcases hundreds of color and black & white photographs, maps, charts, and illustrations * Highlights many of the great caves of the world * Makes information easy to find with alphabetical listings, cross references, suggestions for further reading, plus a full glossary and index

No podría ser más oportuna esta edición en español. La creciente complejidad de los análisis para determinar microcontaminantes, especialmente orgánicos, y la aplicación de las Directivas Comunitarias, en su version española, obliga aun mas, si cabe, a un rigor en la analitica que solo podra conseguirse si se siguen metodos confirmados y seguros.
