Modelling of Pollutants in Complex Environmental Systems, Volumes I and II

These volumes comprehensively showcase a range of models that predict and simulate the dynamics of environmental systems and are routinely used in environmental decision-making and management.
Volume I describes modern environmental modelling methods, the basic theory behind them and their incorporation into complex Environmental investigations. It highlights advanced computing technologies and how they have led to unprecedented and adaptive modelling, simulation and decision-support tools to study complex environmental systems, and how they can be applied to current environmental concerns.
The second volume presents an extended look at environmental modelling research and its applications. It presents timely topics and applications of the study of environmental contaminants, with detailed discussions of mathematical concepts used.
Volumes I and II contain chapters contributed by experts from around the world, including the UK, Europe, Scandinavia, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand and Korea. They are essential reading for academics, policymakers, regulatory agencies, technicians, health professionals, engineers, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students involved in all aspects of environmental modelling.
“ This book could serve as a text for an environmental modeling seminar. With its chapters on topics such as artificial neural networks, GIS-enabled hierarchical patch dynamics, and Bayesian uncertainty analysis, it would also be of interest to practicing environmental modelers who want some reading to pull them out of whatever rut they may find themselves in. ”
