Reviews
From the reviews: “Urban Geology … is an important addition to the growing applied science of urban hydrogeology and engineering geology. … the results emanating from practical and research projects undertaken for the city of Basel by 18 contributors, largely from academic institutes, over a period of years, have been very successfully integrated into a rewarding perspective of urban geology. Well done! … an excellent reference for both students and practising geologists, hydrogeologists, ecologists, water engineers and town planners to consult in their endeavours … .” (Yongxin Xu, Hydrogeology Journal, May, 2012) “The book, Urban Geology, gives a consolidated view of process-oriented concepts for adaptive and integrated resource management of urban environments. It is internally very well organized and places the scientific questions, methods, concepts and case studies in a multilateral relationship. … The process-oriented concepts for adaptive and integrated resource management introduced here describe a promising way of application. Due to the broad and system oriented scientific approach of Urban Geology, the book is recommended to professionals and practitioners.” (Peter Wycisk, Environmental Earth Sciences, June, 2012)
