Interest in groundwater and other subsurface fluids has increased in recent years. Hydrogeologists and geologists are now actively exploring the role of subsurface fluids in such fundamental geologic processes as crustal heat transfer, hydrocarbon migration, earthquakes, diagenesis, and metamorphism. Groundwater in Geologic Processes first develops the basic theory of groundwater motion, solute transport, and heat transport. The second section applies flow and transport theory in a generalized geologic context, and focuses on particular geologic processes and environments. The systematic presentation of theory and application make this book ideal for graduate-level hydrogeologists and geologists with background calculus and introductory chemistry. It will also be an invaluable reference for professionals in the field.
