Physical processes of pollutant transport in the aquatic environment / by Y.L. Lau.: En13-5/90-159E-PDF

"An introduction into the various physical mechanisms which govern the transport of material in the aquatic environment is given.

Special considerations for different environments such as rivers, lakes and estuaries are described. The role of sediments in contaminant transport is briefly discussed"--Abstract.
