An interdisciplinary introduction to selected problems in ground water, air pollution, and hazardous materials. Introduction Ground water Air quality modeling Hazardous materials management pt. 2. Further development of modeling concepts. Additional topics in ground water Additional topics in air modeling and diffusion processes Additional topics in hazardous materials modeling Index N2 - "This book has a dual objective: first, to introduce the reader to some of the most important and widespread environmental issues of the day; and second, to illustrate the vital role played by mathematical models in investigating these issues. The subjects are ground-water contamination, air pollution, and hazardous materials emergencies. These issues are presented in their full real-world context, not as scientific or mathematical abstractions; and for background, readers are invited to investigate specific examples in their own communities."
