This book provides, under one cover, the current methodologies needed by groundwater scientists and engineers in their efforts to evaluate subsurface contamination problems, to estimate risk to human health and ecosystems through mathematical models, and to design and formulate appropriate r 410 0$aEnvironmental science and technology. 606 $aGroundwater$xPurification 606 $aGroundwater flow$xMathematical models 606 $aIn situ bioremediation 606 $aHazardous wastes$xNatural attenuation 615 0$aGroundwater$xPurification. 615 0$aGroundwater flow$xMathematical models. 615 0$aIn situ bioremediation. 615 0$aHazardous wastes$xNatural attenuation. 676 $a628.5 700 $aAlvarez$b Pedro J.
