This book explores the surface and subsurface hydrological conditions and their management in a tropical or sub-tropical setting applying geospatial and geostatistical derived predictive methods.
Microorganisms, the catalysts of all biogeochemical cycles on Earth, are the origin and essence of life-an invisible yet powerful force sustaining all living organisms.
Computational Automation for Water Security: Enhancing Water Quality Management is a comprehensive and insightful guide which explores the challenges posed by inefficient and outdated practices, presenting innovative solutions to enhance decision-making, optimizing water treatment processes, and ultimately improving environmental outcomes.
This introductory text, based on the author's long-standing teaching experience, aims to provide a basic preparation of fluid dynamics, with particular attention to the dynamics of the oceans and the atmosphere, which require consideration of the Coriolis force.
This book gives a comprehensive, theoretical account of the wave-wave interaction process responsible for high acoustic noise levels, including: a geometric description of the interaction mechanism, which provides the basis for a full-wave analysis of the source process, the inclusion of both the monogeneous and inhomogeneous components of the wave-induced pressure field in the analytical description of the source, an examination of the relative contributions of the sum and difference-frequency components of the wave interaction process, the removal of the deep-water assumption of earlier analyses, and the development of an "e;exact"e; analytical expression which allows the source function of the wave-induced pressure field to be calculated over the whole frequency-wave number domain.
Global climate change is typically understood and modeled using global climate models (GCMs), but the outputs of these models in terms of hydrological variables are only available on coarse or large spatial and time scales, while finer spatial and temporal resolutions are needed to reliably assess the hydro-environmental impacts of climate change.
As the global pursuit for environmental sustainability and circular water economy grows ever ambitious, this book explores recent trends, methods, and advancements in industrial wastewater treatment.
This book provides an overview of promoting the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources and reducing waste and pollution, while also addressing the challenges posed by climate change.

Millions upon millions of salmon and steelhead once filled California streams, providing a plentiful and sustainable food resource for the original peoples of the region.
Microplastics have become a significant environmental concern due to their persistence, potential to accumulate in aquatic ecosystems, and ability to infiltrate the food chain.
There has been an exponential increase in desalination capacity both globally and nationally since 1960, fueled in part by growing concern for local water scarcity and made possible to a great extent by a major federal investment for desalination research and development.
