  • Seawater Intrusion in Coastal Aquifers

    Concepts, Methods and Practices

    Edited by Jacob Bear, D. Ouazar, I. Herrera, A. Cheng, S. Sorek ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Coastal aquifers serve as major sources for freshwater supply in many countries around the world, especially in arid and semi-arid zones. Many coastal areas are also heavily urbanized, a fact that makes the need for freshwater even more acute. Coastal aquifers are highly sensitive to disturbances. Inappropriate management of a coastal aquifer may lead to its destruction as a source for freshwater ... Read more

  • Safety in Offshore Drilling

    The Role of Shallow Gas Surveys, Proceedings of an International Conference (Safety in Offshore Drilling) organized by the Society for Underwater Technology and held in London, U.K., April 25 & 26, 1990

    Edited by D.A. Ardus, C.D. Green ...
    Series Book 25 - Advances in Underwater Technology, Ocean Science and Offshore Engineering
    Shallow Gas determination, prior to drilling, is carried out using 'Engineering Seismic' survey methods. Seismic acquisition data quality is fundamental in achieving this objective as both the data processing methods and interpretation accuracy are subject to the quality of the data obtained. The recent application of workstation based data analysis and interpretation has clearly demonstrated the ... Read more

  • Land Subsidence Analysis in Urban Areas

    The Bangkok Metropolitan Area Case Study

    by David G. Zeitoun, Eliyahu Wakshal ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Cities built on unconsolidated sediments consisting of clays, silt, peat, and sand, are particularly susceptible to subsidence. Such regions are common in delta areas, where rivers empty into the oceans, along flood plains adjacent to rivers, and in coastal marsh lands. Building cities in such areas aggravates the problem for several reasons:Construction of buildings and streets adds weight to the ... Read more
