The text provides the knowledge needed to deal with a quantitative approach, the multiple aspects related to the flow of groundwater resources (groundwater) and propagation and remediation of contaminants in water systems. Describes the basic properties that define the capacity of storage, transport and release water in aquifers, and then, describes the methods for the determination of these parameters with the execution and interpretation of evidence of groundwater, well water and of laboratory. From the physical-chemical and toxicological classification of contaminants are then analyzed the propagation mechanisms and discusses the analytical solutions of the mass transport in porous media. The last part of the text is devoted to the characterization and remediation of contaminated aquifers.

Cet ouvrage expose les connaissances hydrologiques les plus récentes sur la genèses des écoulements, les crues extrêmes et les étiages. Il fournit des conseils pratiques dans l’utilisation et l’interprétation des données. Il présente aussi des outils de modélisation qui peuvent être utilisés pour évaluer les risques hydrologiques et gérer des réserves hydrauliques en prenant appui sur les expériences récentes de leurs applications opérationnelles.

This textbook employs a technical and quantitative approach to explain subsurface hydrology and hydrogeology, and to offer a comprehensive overview of groundwater-related topics such as flow in porous media, aquifer characterization, contaminant description and transport, risk assessment, and groundwater remediation. It describes the characterization of subsurface flow of pristine and polluted water and provides readers with easily applicable tools for the design of water supply systems, drinking-water source protection, and remediation interventions. Specific applications range from groundwater exploitation as a drinking water supply to the remediation of contaminated aquifers, from the definition and safeguarding of drinking-water sources to the assessment of human health risks in connection with groundwater contamination events. The book represents an ideal learning resource for upper-undergraduate and graduate students of civil engineering, environmental engineering, and geology, as well as practitioners in the fields of water resource management and environmental protection who are interested in groundwater engineering and technical hydrogeology.

This book puts great emphasis on the importance of Integrated Water Resources Management IWRM as the way forward towards food, water, and energy security. It offers better ways and means of managing the limited water resources, using water more efficiently, adopting new policies in order to cope with climate change and drought, increase water supply through the use of non conventional water resources, especially waste water, inducing stakeholders participation and information exchange and raise public awareness to the value of water.
