    Edición de B.U. Haq, J.D. Milliman ...
    Series Libro 2 - Coastal Systems and Continental Margins
    Greenhouse-induced climate warming increasingly appears to be a reality, and the warming climate will be accompanied by an accelerated sea level rise - as much as 60-100 cm over the next century.

  • Numerical Models in Groundwater Pollution

    de Karel Kovarik ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Mathematical models are the effective tool to solve different tasks predicting pollutant movement. The finite difference method is the oldest, but still remains widely used in hydrogeological practice. However, this method is not very useful to construct the new transport models because it cannot approximate the shape of remediation elements exactly. Therefore the book is concerned with the FEM ...
