Subsidence Induced by Fossil Fuel Extraction 330 $aThis book covers a range of topics that are of increasing importance in engineering practice: natural hazards, pollution, and environmental protection through good practice. The first half of the book deals with natural risk factors, of both natural and human origin, that should be considered: subsidence, accidental infiltration, soil instability, rockslides and mudslides, debris flow, and degradation of buildings and monuments due to pollution and climactic effects, for example. These problems are highlighted and it is shown that a combination of sophisticated numerical techniques and e 410 0$aISTE 606 $aEnvironmental geotechnology 606 $aSoil pollution 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnvironmental geotechnology. 615 0$aSoil pollution. 676 $a624.151 676 $a628.5/5 676 $a628.55 700 $aSchrefler$b B.

Individual experts have contributed reviews, novel research, and case series within the field to make a broad and interesting collection designed to stimulate thought and discussion in this area. The collection is dedicated to the life and career of Emeritus Professor John Marsden Goldsmid, an eminent parasitologist and advocate for further attention to these above listed fields of medicine. It would be suitable for medical and veterinary practitioners, students, scientists, and epidemiologists with an interest in parasitology and public health. 517 $aParasites, Zoonoses and War 606 $aEpidemiology and Medical statistics$2bicssc 606 $aMedicine and Nursing$2bicssc 610 $abisulphite 610 $acultural competency 610 $acultural safety in health service delivery 610 $adevil facial tumor disease 610 $ae-Diagnosis 610 $afalse hookworm 610 $aglobal medicine 610 $aGnathostoma species 610 $agnathostomiasis 610 $ahelminth 610 $ahookworm 610 $ahuman 610 $aimmune escape 610 $aimported helminthiasis 610 $alarva migrans 610 $aleishmaniasis 610 $alymphatic filariasis 610 $amedical history 610 $aMHC 610 $amilitary 610 $amolecular parasitology 610 $amorphologist 610 $an/a 610 $aOkavango 610 $aPacific 610 $aparasite 610 $aparasitology 610 $apraziquantel 610 $aprimate 610 $aqPCR 610 $aschistosomiasis 610 $asocial determinants of health 610 $asoil transmitted helminths 610 $asouthern Africa 610 $aSTH 610 $aTasmania 610 $aTernidens 610 $aternidensiasis 610 $atourists 610 $atransmissible cancer 610 $atravel medicine 610 $atropical medicine 610 $aWW2 610 $azoonoses 610 $azoonosis 615 7$aEpidemiology and Medical statistics 615 7$aMedicine and Nursing 700 $aBradbury$b Richard S$4edt$01330866 702 $aBradbury$b Richard S$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557761703321 996 $aParasites, Zoonoses and War$93039998 997 $aUNINA
