Integrated Soil and Sediment Research: A Basis for Proper Protection

About this book

Proc. 1st European Conference on this subject.

Contents

I Soil and policies and the need for integrated soil research: setting standards in relation to reference values, agricultural use, building activities and remediation; integrated soil research for low input agriculture. II Assessment of soil quality and soil vulnerability: speciation and bioavailability; soil ecotoxicity testing; rehabilitation and erosion management. III Approaches in integrated soil research: spatial interpolation in relation to soil contamination; decision support system; farming by soil - using information systems for site-specific fertilization. IV Managing problems of soil and sediment pollution: ex situ soil and sediment treating by physio-chemical, thermal and multiple treatment; isolation, containment and hydrogeochemical management of contaminated sites; in situ soil and sediment treatment (air and groundwater stripping/flushing combined with biorestoration). V Soil quality - burden or business opportunity.
