This book is an outgrowth of research contributions and teaching experiences by all the authors in applying modern fluid mechanics to problems of pollutant transport and mixing in the water environment. It should be suitable for use in first year graduate level courses for engineering and science students, although more material is contained than can reasonably be taught in a one-year course, and most instructors will probably wish to cover only selected potions. The book should also be useful as a reference for practicing hydraulic and environmental engineers, as well as anyone involved in...

Free radicals, which are key intermediates in many thermal, photochemical and radiation processes, are important for a proper understanding of fundamental natural processes and the successful development of organic syntheses. Volume II/18 serves as supplement and extension to Volume II/13 and covers rate constants and other kinetic data of free radical reactions in liquids. II/18 contains new chapters on reactions of radicals in excited states and of carbenes, nitrenes and analogues. Species in aqueous solutions for which other compilations are available were...
