  • "Many coastal regions rely on underground aquifers for a major portion of their freshwater supply. A practical, how-to guide, this book brings together new knowledge and new technologies useful to hydrogeologists, water resources engineers, and other professionals responsible for protecting and managing groundwater supplies. It provides useful methods and tools for modeling, monitoring, and managing coastal aquifers. International contributors present a worldwide perspective on a topic that is growing in importance and a companion CD-ROM provides computer programs, data files, sample output, co."
  • "Approximately 70 per cent of the world's population lives in coastal areas, and the majority of these people depend on coastal aquifers for freshwater. The fragility of these aquifers and their sensitivity to human activity demand informed, competent management to guarantee their survival. Significant knowledge and new technologies related to the subject have accumulated in the last two decades, and a need has emerged for a comprehensive reference that gathers and disseminates crucial information to engineering practitioners and policymakers.Coastal Aquifer Management-Monitoring, Modeling, and Case Studies provides the most advanced and up-to-date methods and tools for the study and protection of coastal aquifers. This "how-to" volume presents a worldwide perspective with contributions from an international panel of experts. They address topics such as geohydrology, optimization, uncertainty analysis, and GIS as they relate to geographically-specific case studies; knowledge from these examples can be applied to aquifer issues in other regions.; A companion CD-ROM supplements the text with programs and graphics, making this overview an indispensable reference and tool for the analysis of critical freshwater resources."
