Full Description

This book focuses on the behaviour and impact of environmental pollutants in metropolitan development by studying the cases of the soil, water, and atmosphere of both Shanghai and Nanjing, which are two of the fastest economically developing areas in recent decades in China. Based on samples and experiments, some solutions for bottleneck problems in recent practices for urban environment research are systematically discussed, proposing the following innovations: 1) classifying urban pollution in a developing metropolis based on pollutant behaviour mechanisms; 2) identifying the amount of trace metals added by human activities to urban soil and their geological background amount, distinguishable from the total amount of detectable trace metals as a whole. This book can provide a valuable guide for researchers and engineers in relevant disciplines, and for environmental policymakers to consult in decision-making practices for urban development and environmental protection.
