Content:
The urban environments of megacities worldwide are in urgent need of sustainble management. Hazardous substances, atmospheric movement, coastal hydrology, biological tests, and wasterwater are among the topics addressed by leading researchers today. Based on case studies of several Asian cities and their environmental issues, this book focuses on advanced monitiring and simulation systems essential to the development of strategies of sustainability. Monotoring and modeling are fundamnetal to understanding pollution phenomena and the critical mechanisms of pollution control processes. While environmental monitoring provides information that characterizes environment quality, simulations apply such data to the development of models of the kinetics involved. This volume will be practical interest to students and young professionals in the field of civil engineering, architecture, environmental engineering, and environmental science, as well as those without knowledge or experience in computer science. Invaluable information is also provided for city planners and government policy makers. --Book Jacket
