Concern about groundwater contamination has focused attention on the processes that influence chemical fate in soil water systems. This work presents estimation techniques and transfer processes of required input data from existing databases in geographic information systems.

Within the discipline of environmental sciences, the stable-isotope methodology is being increasingly used, especially in the study of the water cycle and of paeleo-climatology. This book reviews the natural variability of stable isotopes in the hydrosphere.

A comprehensive overview of the models and methods employed in the rapidly advancing field of numerical ocean circulation modelling. It contains reviews of the equations of oceanic motion, subgridscale parameterization, and numerical approximation techniques, and a suite of model test problems.

The lectures included in this series of papers cover a variety of topics, ranging from the Earth's climate to pests and pesticides, illustrating the diverse and interdisciplinary nature of environmental issues and problems.
