Permafrost Environmental Consulting Inc. announces the release of a
twelve-volume book set and CD-ROM, "Contaminants in Permafrost and
Freezing Ground Environmental Resource Library," by Thomas L. White. The
Contaminated Arctic Soils Database provides engineers and geoscientists
working in universities, research institutes, corporations, government
and regulatory bodies with the tools necessary to carry out an in-depth
examination of the behavior of contaminants in freezing soils and
permafrost-affected soils.
The Environmental Resource Library details the fundamental behavior and
modification of physical, chemical, and hydrological properties of
freezing soils and permafrost-affected soils (Cryosols) by a wide range
of organic and inorganic contaminants. The resource library provides the
user with additional insights into:
- The thermodynamic properties of Arctic and Antarctic cold climate
soils;
- Contaminants at airports, oil and gas facilities, mining sites,
military sites, landfills and impoundments in cold climates;
- The nature of contaminant hydrology with case studies for
assessment;
- Strategies for contaminated site management; and
- Technologies and remediation procedures.
