Uptodate coverage and a unique, multidisciplinary approachThe ongoing effort to protect our valuable groundwater resources necessarily involves scientists and engineers from many disciplines. GroundWater Microbiology and Geochemistry, Second Edition is designed to bridge the historical lack of communication among these disciplines by detailingin language that cuts across specialtiesthe impact of microorganisms and microbial processes on groundwater systems.Carefully revised to reflect the many recent discoveries that have been made in the field, the Second Edition begins with an overview of microbiology, ideal for hydrologists and others who may lack formal training in the field. These initial chapters systematically cover the kinds of microorganisms found in subsurface environments, focusing on their growth, metabolism, genetics, and ecology.The second part of the book offers a hydrologic perspective on how microbial processes affect groundwater geochemistry in pristine systems. It also introduces the different classes of groundwater systems, and gives an overview of techniques for sampling subsurface environments. Readers gain an understanding of biogeochemical cycling in groundwater systemsin coverage unique to this bookand how groundwater chemistry can be used to study microbial processes in aquifer systems.The final section of the book deals with the biodegradation of humanintroduced contaminants in groundwater systems, with an uptodate review of the physiology, biochemistry, and redox conditions that favor biodegradation processes.GroundWater Microbiology and Geochemistry, Second Edition is important reading for geoscientists, hydrologists, and environmental engineers, as well as for water planners and lawyers involved in environmental issues. It also serves as a compelling text for upperlevel undergraduate and graduate courses in groundwater chemistry.
