This book presents state-of-the-art techniques on radon (222Rn) in the environment, including measurement techniques in air, soil and water and its potential applications to various hydrological investigations, especially for water resources development and management. The future directions of its use are also discussed.
As a radon tracer can be used to solve hydrological issues, the highlights of this book are useful for stakeholders to achieve UN Sustainable Development Goal 6, which addresses the sustainability of water resources. The most relevant target...

La croissance rapide de la population et le développement socio-économique menacent les ressources en eau souterraine à travers les activités humaines qui altèrent leur quantité, leur qualité et leur distribution régionale. Au cours des 15 dernières années environ, de nombreuses enquêtes relatives aux caractéristiques des eaux souterraines et à leur contamination due à des processus naturels, anthropiques, et d'autres facteurs majeurs contrôlant la chimie des eaux souterraines de différentes régions de l'Inde. La contamination des eaux souterraines est principalement due à...

Das schnelle Bevölkerungswachstum und die sozioökonomische Entwicklung bedrohen die Grundwasserressourcen durch menschliche Aktivitäten, die die Menge, Qualität und regionale Verteilung des Grundwassers verändern. In den letzten 15 Jahren wurden in verschiedenen Regionen Indiens zahlreiche Untersuchungen zu den Eigenschaften des Grundwassers und seiner Verschmutzung durch natürliche Prozesse, anthropogene und andere wichtige Faktoren durchgeführt, die die Grundwasserchemie steuern. Die Verschmutzung des Grundwassers ist vor allem auf die zunehmende Verstädterung, den Einsatz von...

The rapid population growth and the social-economic development threaten the groundwater resources through human activities that alter its quantity, quality, and regional distribution. Over the last 15 years or so, many investigations relating to groundwater characteristics and its contamination due to natural processes, anthropogenic, and other major factors controlling groundwater chemistry from different regions in India. Groundwater contamination is mainly due to increased urbanization, use of fertilizers for crop production, infiltration of untreated industrial wastes, and unhygienic...

India has an extensive coastline of about 7,517 km. the coastline of Tamil Nadu has a length of 1,076 km, which constitutes about 15 percent of the total coastal length of India, and stretches along the Bay of Bengal, the Indian Ocean, and the Arabian Sea. About 46 rivers drain into the Bay of Bengal forming several estuaries adjoining coastal lagoons. The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) considered seawater intrusion into aquifers an important future impact of climate change and sea-level rise. Understanding the evolution of groundwater chemistry, especially the balance between...
