Product details
An indispensable introduction to the key environmental processes of weathering and erosion
Natural and human-induced weathering processes can have a great impact on soil and groundwater quality. With climate change and other environmental challenges placing increased emphasis on these resources, it has never been more important for researchers and environmental professionals to attain detailed knowledge of weathering and erosion processes.
Weathering and Erosion Processes in the Natural Environment meets this need with a rigorous, systematic overview. Beginning with a description of different forces and processes that contribute to weathering, it then discusses the different kinds of landforms that can be produced by weathering and erosion processes, as well as the potential impacts of hydrogeological processes on both surface water and groundwater. The result is a volume that balances qualitative and quantitative understanding of this crucial subject.
Weathering and Erosion Processes in the Natural Environment readers will also find:
- Documented examples in which weathering and erosion processes have led to heavy metals and other trace elements in groundwater
- Detailed discussion of climate change impacts, including extreme weather events and rising carbon dioxide levels
- Modeling approaches throughout to enable quantitative assessment and predictions of future impact
Weathering and Erosion Processes in the Natural Environment is ideal for researchers and advanced students in geology, geochemistry, hydrogeochemistry and environmental science, as well as professionals dealing with water and soil management.
