The book describes the methods and technologies to assess, monitor and mitigate mining impacts on marine environments, and also suggests various approaches for environmental management when conducting deep-sea mining. The volume brings together information and data for researchers, contractors, mining companies, regulators, and NGOs working in the field of deep-sea mining. Section 1 highlights the various environmental issues and discusses methods and approaches that can help in developing environmentally sustainable deep-sea mining. Section 2 details the results and outcomes of studies related to impact assessment of deep-sea mining, and proposes methods for monitoring. Section 3 discusses the need and means for developing data standards and their application to deep-sea mining. Section 4 discusses the policies, approaches, and practices related to deep-sea mining, suggests formats for developing environmental impact statements (EIS) and environmental management plans (EMP), and describes national and international regulations for environmental management. Section 5 concludes the text by putting deep-sea economic activities into an environmental context and conducting techno-economic analyses of deep-sea mining and processing.Mineral resourcesOceanographyMetalsEnvironmental chemistryMarine sciencesFreshwaterGeotechnical engineeringMineral Resourceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G38010Oceanographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G25005Metallic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z16000Environmental Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U15000Marine & Freshwater Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U36000Geotechnical Engineering & Applied Earth Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37010Mineral resources.Oceanography.Metals.Environmental chemistry.Marine sciences.Freshwater.Geotechnical engineering.Mineral Resources.Oceanography.Metallic Materials.Environmental Chemistry.Marine & Freshwater Sciences.Geotechnical Engineering & Applied Earth Sciences.628.16832333.85Sharma Rahuledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910337911303321Environmental Issues of Deep-Sea Mining1921273UNINA
