Environmental Geochemistry: Site Characterization, Data Analysis and Case Histories

Editat de Benedetto DeVivo, Harvey Belkin, Annamaria Lima
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 sep 2017
Environmental Geochemistry: Site Characterization, Data Analysis and Case Histories, Second Edition, reviews the role of geochemistry in the environment and details state-of-the-art applications of these principles in the field, specifically in pollution and remediation situations. Chapters cover both philosophy and procedures, as well as applications, in an array of issues in environmental geochemistry including health problems related to environment pollution, waste disposal and data base management. This updated edition also includes illustrations of specific case histories of site characterization and remediation of brownfield sites.


  • Covers numerous global case studies allowing readers to see principles in action
  • Explores the environmental impacts on soils, water and air in terms of both inorganic and organic geochemistry
  • Written by a well-respected author team, with over 100 years of experience combined
  • Includes updated content on: urban geochemical mapping, chemical speciation, characterizing a brownsfield site and the relationship between heavy metal distributions and cancer mortality
