As earth’s population continues to grow and the detrimental aftereffects of industrialization and environmental negligence become more apparent, society has become more aware of, and concerned about, stewardship of the natural environment – water, soil, and air. Sustainable development has become more widely received and promoted in many parts of the world. The need is now critical for earth and environmental scientists and engineers to work together to implement technologies that can preserve our environment. The Earth’s population was 6.6 billion as of April 2007 according to the U.S. Census Bureau. This number is expected to rise to 9.4 billion by 2050. The population is increasing the demand for natural resources and energy, and increasing stress on the environment. Thus, protection of the environment and remediation of damage to the environment must be a priority. It is also important to develop procedures that will help to avert further damage to the environment and to recognize as early as possible the risks associated with changes in the environment. Many methodologies and technologies have become more advanced in the past few decades, and new technologies and approaches have been developed, all to address the growing need for environmental assessment, monitoring, and remediation. As these technologies have grown, the need for interdisciplinary cooperation has also become more apparent. Specialists in remote sensing, geophysical methods, hydrogeology, geology, and geochemistry must maintain current awareness of developments within their sister disciplines in order to formulate effective overall approaches for environmental issues.

Dieses Handbuch besteht aus insgesamt neun Einzelbänden. Sechs Bände behandeln die Themen Geofernerkundung, Strömungs- und Transportmodellierung, Geophysik, Hydrogeologie/Geotechnik, Tonmineralogie und Bodenphysik sowie Geochemie. Drei weitere Bände geben Handlungsempfehlungen für ein stufenweises Vorgehen bei der Erkundung von Deponie- und Altlastenstandorten, Fallbeispiele aus der Erkundungspraxis sowie einen Leitfaden zur interdisziplinären Erkundung und Bewertung von Quartärsedimenten als geologische Barrieren. Damit wird allen, die in Behörden und Firmen oder in der Wissenschaft an den Problemen des Umweltschutzes arbeiten, ein umfassendes Werk zur Verfügung gestellt, mit dem geowissenschaftliche Erkundungsarbeiten ökologisch wirksam und ökonomisch effizient durchgeführt werden können. In dieser aktualisierten Neuauflage des Bandes Geophysik werden die geophysikalischen Methoden und Werkzeuge zur Erkundung und Beschreibung des Untergrundes von Deponien und Altablagerungen dargestellt. Das breite Methodenspektrum wurde um die Kapitel Oberflächen-Nuklear-Magnetische Resonanz zur Grundwassersuche und NMR-Laborverfahren erweitert. Ein neues Kapitel In-situ-Überwachung stellt moderne Verfahren zur Langzeitüberwachung vor. Die Einschränkung des Anwendungsbereiches auf den "Untergrund von Deponien und Altlasten" bezieht sich vornehmlich auf die verwendeten Beispiele. Die dargestellten Methoden und Werkzeuge sind jedoch universell einsetzbar. Das Handbuch kann daher als ein Kompendium für die Umweltgeophysik verstanden werden. Es soll ausdrücklich kein Lehrbuch ersetzen. Dennoch wird es schon durch seine praxisorientierten Methodendarstellungen und zahlreichen Anwendungsbeispiele für die Aus- und Weiterbildung von Nutzen sein. Mit einer leicht verständlichen Methodenbeschreibung und Angaben zu den Anwendungsmöglichkeiten sollen auch fachfremde Leser angesprochen werden. Vorwiegend in den Grundlagenkapiteln findet der Geophysiker das Spezialwissen, das er zum Einsatz der Methode oder zur Beurteilung von Ergebnissen benötigt. Erläutert werden auch die Meßprinzipien und der Stand der Meßgerätetechnik, die Anlage und Durchführung der Feldarbeiten, die Bearbeitung und Interpretation der Meßdaten, die Qualitätssicherung sowie der personelle, technische und zeitliche Aufwand. Beispiele aus der Erkundungspraxis veranschaulichen die Anwendung der Methoden.
