The reader is introduced to the chemistry of contaminants, which usually disturb the natural equilibrium in the subsurface as a result of human activity. The major focus of the book is on contaminant reactions in soil solutions, groundwater and porous media solid phases, accounting for their persistence and transformation in the subsurface, as they are transported from the land surface into groundwater. Discussions on selected case studies are provided. OP - 412 CN - QE471-471.15 SN - 9783540743828 KW - Sedimentology. KW - Geochemistry. KW - Soil science. KW - Soil conservation.
