1. General introduction -- 2. Hydrologic balance and groundwater -- 3. Groundwater terminology and examples of occurrences -- 4. Saturated groundwater flow -- 5. Hydraulic conductivity measurements -- 6. Land subsidence induced by pumping and drainage -- 7. Introduction to groundwater quality and hydrochemistry -- 8. Contaminant transport, residence times, prevention and remediation -- 9. Groundwater flow and transport under partially saturated conditions -- 10. Salinization and density dependent groundwater flow and transport -- 11. Heat transfer in aquifers and shallow geothermy -- 12. Methodology for groundwater flow and solute transport modeling -- 13. Main principles of numerical techniques used in groundwater modeling.

This text combines the science and engineering of hydrogeology in an accessible, innovativestyle. As well as providing physical descriptions and characterisations of hydrogeological processes, it also sets out the corresponding mathematical equations for groundwater flow and solute/heat transport calculations. And, within this, the methodological and conceptual aspects for flow and contaminant transport modelling are discussed in detail. Thiscomprehensive analysis forms theideal textbookfor graduate and undergraduate students interested in groundwater resources and engineering, and indeed its analyses can apply to researchers and professionals involved in the area.
