Full Description
Groundwater Geochemistry and Isotopes provides the theoretical understanding and interpretive methods and contains useful information on the basics of sampling and analysis. This text teaches the thermodynamic basis and principal reactions involving the major ions, gases, and isotopes during groundwater recharge, weathering, and redox evolution. This second edition emphasizes the practical use of isotopes and geochemistry in understanding groundwater origin, flow, and contamination and includes all the latest methods and isotopes developed since the first publication. All new hyperlinks have been added, and the end-of-chapter problems have been updated throughout. Accessible to consultants and practitioners as well as undergraduates, this new edition presents the basics of environmental isotopes and geochemistry and provides a full understanding of their use in natural and contaminated groundwater.
Covers the basics of solutes, gases, and isotopes in water, and concentration-activity relationships and reactions.
Describes tracing the water cycle, weathering, and the geochemical evolution of water quality.
Explores dating groundwater as young as a few years to over hundreds of millions of years.
Uses case studies to demonstrate the application of geochemistry and isotopes for contaminated groundwaters.
