Kurzbeschreibung Published in the pocket-sized format for ease of use in the field. This edition is completely revised and updated, in particular to bring the book in line with developments in environmental regulations. The order of the chapters will reflect the structure of a hydrogeological project up to completion of a report. The focus will be on current practical applications of hydrogeological investigations using new case histories and a new chapter on groundwater investigations.
