Hydrogeology of the Chalk of North-West Europe

Zusatztext Review from previous edition 'The book is well written throughout and has a generally consistent style - which is a credit to the diligence of its editors. A comprehensive reference list always adds much to the academic worth of a publication for use by future workers. In this case it also bears silent testimony to the large number of workers whose contribution to the knowledge of Chalk hydrogeolgoy is demonstrated by the large number of papers they have produced over the past thirty years.' Klappentext Chalk is the most important source of fresh water in North-West Europe, yielding some eight million cubic metres daily. The book reviews the origins and characteristics of this unique rock and the water it contains.
