Zusatztext 'Here are three reasons that I love the Environmental Chemical Desk Reference: As a Licensed Site Remediation Professional! my goal is to gather accurate! reliable! and complete information efficiently and effectively. The Environmental Chemical Desk Reference provides me trustworthy information! thus making the best use of my time. It includes key parameters for fate and transport modeling and also lists possible sources. It is one of my favorite books on myshelf.The Environmental Chemical Desk Reference is an excellent source for identifying sources and uses for a chemical. While looking for uses of a chemical! I may glance at other properties (e.g.! chemical structure! density! and ionization potential! Henry's law constant! and soil organic carbon/water partition coefficient). Because a wealth of environmental information is presented in a very organized way! I get more than I am looking for. For fate and transport modeling of a chemical! selection ofthe source of information is under my control; information obtained from a well-known source! like Environmental Chemical Desk Reference! provides added assurance. I don't need to verify the organization providing the information.'- Tan-yueh Chang! Licensed Site Remediation Professional. Informationen zum Autor John H. Montgomery - Hydrogeochemist! Columbia Technologies! MD! USA. The author is an highly experienced hydrogeochemist with extensive knowledge and skills in the interpretation of data collected through MIP! LIF! HPT and MiHPT high resolution direct sensing technologies. With a career spanning more than 30 years in the environmental industry!
