DESCRIPTION:
Ori Sartono said For advance hydrogeologist. This book is overwhelming with equations. It is not really difficult to follow if you have some basic math and understand groundwater. If you want to know where one equation that you use comes from, get this book. I use this book as one of my self study book about hydraulics. I am on halfway through and I find this fascinating.Considering the content, every advance hydrogeologist should get one. The book's price is also encouraging.. An excellent reference book (like a good old wine). shlomo orr The book includes developments and presentations of fundamentals, from conceptual models (though highly simplified) to and a myriad of classic analytic solutions (so the reader may need to read it selectively) - which are the basis of any groundwater modeling.. A+++ Material for groundwater hydrology. Very good introductory material for groundwater hydrology. Topics are explained in a simple and easy to understand manner. Useful examples. More examples will be great.
Helpful appendixes and a set of problems corresponding to selected chapters conclude the text.. Additional topics include hydraulics of pumping and recharging wells, fresh and salt water interface in coastal aquifers, modeling of aquifer systems, identification of aquifer parameters, and the use of linear programming in aquifer management. It provides groundwater hydrologists, as well as engineers and planners who deal with the development and management of groundwater resources, with all the necessary tools to forecast the behavior of a regional aquifer system.Following an introduction to the role and management of groundwater in water resource systems, the text examines groundwater balance and motion, mathematical statements of the groundwater forecasting problem, flow in the unsaturated zone, and groundwater quality problems. This text explores the laws and equations that govern the flow and storage of groundwater in aquifers
