To keep pace with the rapidly emerging area of chemometrics, this volume presents basic principles together with real applications in environmental chemistry. It provides an overview in relation to quantitative environmental analysis, and a review of descriptive statistical concepts. It covers environmental sampling considerations, experimental design, and optimization techniques, and ...
The book presents test methods on evaluation procedures for chemicals. Devices, and other techniques used to control aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates. The areas of major interest to the reader are methods of reducing potential hazards of pesticides, including insecticides, herbicides, and microbial agents; pesticide hazard to aquatic environments; research methodologies devised primarily for ...
Modelling environmental dynamics is critical to understanding and predicting the evolution of the environment in response to the large number of influences including urbanisation, climate change and deforestation. Simulation and modelling provide support for decision making in environmental management. The first chapter introduces terminology and provides an overview of methodological modelling ...
The objective of this Recommended Practice (RP) is to provide a basic understanding of and guidance about drilling fluid rheology and hydraulics, and their application to drilling operations. The target audience for this RP covers both the office and wellsite engineer. The complexity of the equations used is such that a competent engineer can use a simple spreadsheet program to conduct the ...
Contains 15 papers that reflect new research thrusts in the validation and predictability of methods for environmental hazard assessment. The methods use laboratory microcosms, single species laboratory bioassays, and computer modeling ...
Molecular techniques are emerging as a rapid and powerful approach for microorganism detection. This project reviewed the efficacy of PCR assays for Cryptosporidium, Microcystis, adenovirus and ammonia oxidising bacteria, as well as candidate techniques for DNA extraction and inhibitor removal. The literature review led to an evaluation of DNA extraction kits and reagents for PCR; finalisation of ...
