Groundwater is one of the most important resources on earth. The book gives an introduction to the scientific topic describing this resource: hydrogeology. The new third edition covers major fields in hydrogeology and includes outlines on groundwater systems, the movement and underground storage of groundwater, the formulation of groundwater balances, the development of groundwater chemistry, and the relation with water management.
The hydrological cycle
Exercises for all topics are included. Not pretending to cover all aspects, the book aims to make groundwater ‘visible’ to the interested reader, also providing a wealth of practical information.
