Tracers in Hydrology and Water Research is a comprehensive
overview of the application of natural and artificial tracers in
hydrology and environmental research. Taking a unique approach by
providing the reader with a systematic and state of the art
description of natural and artificial tracers, the book also
covers key analytical techniques and applications, and modern
tracer methods in the context of systematic hydrology. Tracers have
become a primary tool for process investigation, qualitative and
quantitative system analysis and integrated resource management.
This book will outline the fundamentals of the subject, and examine
the latest research findings, clearly showing the entire process of
tracer application through the inclusion of numerous integrated
case studies.
As many techniques derive from different scientific disciplines (chemistry, biology, physics), the effort of compilation and integration into modern hydrology and environmental science research and application requires substantial continuity and experience, which certifies this group of authors.
This book will be an invaluable reference not only for students and researchers within the field of Hydrology and Hydrogeology but also for engineers and other tracer techniques applying users.
