Isotope Hydrology: A Practical Approach
Author: Teddy Reynolds
Publisher: Callisto Reference
ISBN: 9781641165785
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Isotope hydrology is a field of hydrology which is concerned with the utilization of isotope dating to estimate the age and origins of water. It also studies the movement of water within the hydrologic cycle. Water consists of water molecules carrying unique fingerprints located in part on different proportions of oxygen and hydrogen isotopes. Isotope hydrology helps in creating an elaborated picture of earth's water resources. It is primarily involved in using stable isotopes to determine the age of ice or snow. Its techniques are also used for conserving water supplies, controlling pollution and mapping aquifers. This book outlines the processes and applications of isotope hydrology in detail. It will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.

Environmental Tracers in Subsurface Hydrology
Author: Peter G. Cook
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461545579
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
Environmental Tracers in Subsurface Hydrology synthesizes the research of specialists into a comprehensive review of the application of environmental tracers to the study of soil water and groundwater flow. The book includes chapters which cover ionic tracers, noble gases, chlorofluorocarbons, tritium, chlorine-36, oxygen-18, deuterium, and isotopes of carbon, strontium, sulphur and nitrogen. Applications of the tracers include the estimation of vertical and horizontal groundwater velocities, groundwater recharge rates, inter-aquifer leakage and mixing processes, chemical processes and palaeohydrology. Practicing hydrologists, soil physicists and hydrology professors and students will find the book to be a valuable support in their work.

Isotope Hydrology
Author: Joel Gat
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1860940358
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
Within the realm of the newly evolving discipline of environmental sciences, the stable-isotope methodology is being used to an ever-increasing extent, especially in the study of the water cycle and of paleo-climatology. This book introduces the rules of the game, by reviewing the natural variability of stable isotopes in the hydrosphere, describing the physico-chemical basis of isotope fractionation, and applying this knowledge to natural waters as they move through the hydrologic cycle from the ocean to the atmosphere, the biosphere and the lithosphere. There is a special focus on the processes at the surface?atmosphere and land?biosphere?atmosphere interfaces, since these are the sites of major changes in isotope composition. In response to the increasing awareness of our changing climate, a discussion on the global view of the changing water cycle, in the past and future, winds up the presentation.

Isotopes of the Earth's Hydrosphere
Author: V.I. Ferronsky
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400728565
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 626
Book Description
This book covers the distribution, hydrochemistry and geophysics of the naturally occurring stable isotopes namely: hydrogen, oxygen and radioactive tritium, carbon and other cosmogenic and radiogenic isotopes of the uranium-thorium series, in the oceans and in atmosphere, the earth's surface and ground water. The use of environmental isotopes in the three main areas of natural waters is discussed: origin, dynamics and residence time in natural reservoirs. The origin of the hydrosphere is examined in the light of isotopic, new cosmochemical and recent theoretical results. The book will be of interest to scientists and researchers who use environmental isotopes in solving scientific and practical problems in hydrology, hydrogeology, oceanography, meteorology, hydrogeochemistry and cosmochemistry. Lecturers, students and postgraduates in these fields will also find it useful.
