This book provides, under one cover, the current methodologies needed by groundwater scientists and engineers in their efforts to evaluate subsurface contamination problems, to estimate risk to human health and ecosystems through mathematical models, and to design and formulate appropriate remediation strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIncorporating the authors' extensive backgrounds as educators, researchers, and consultants in environmental biotechnology and hydrogeology, the text emphasizes new concepts and recent advances in the science, including:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eQuantification of the role of microbes in natural attenuation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiodegradation and chemical transformation principles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eImmobilization and phase change\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiotransformation mechanisms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGroundwater flow and contaminant transport\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnalytical models for contaminant transport and reaction processes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumerical modeling of contaminant transport, transformation, and degradation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eDetailed descriptions of fundamental processes, characterization approaches, and analytical and numerical methods tied to relevant real-world applications make \u003ci\u003eBioremediation and Natural Attenuation: Process Fundamentals and Mathematical Models\u003c\/i\u003e both a timely course text in hydrogeology and environmental engineering and a valuable reference for anyone in the groundwater or risk assessment professions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003ePEDRO J.
