    Abstract: This book demonstrates the measurement, monitoring, mapping and modelling of soil pollution and land resources. This book explores state-of-the-art techniques based on open sources software & R statistical programming and modelling in modern geo-computation techniques specifically focusing on the recent trends in data mining/machine learning techniques and robust modelling in soil resources. Soil and agricultural systems are an integral part of the global environment and human well‐being, providing multiple goods and services essential for people worldwide and crucial for sustainable development. Soil contamination is an environmental hazard and has become a big issue related to environmental health. The challenge of the twenty-first century is to reduce the contaminant load and bring it to below permissible level. The contamination is not only a problem affecting local environments at the place of occurrence but also spreading to other regions because of easy transportation of pollutants. This leads to direct and indirect contamination of land and aquatic systems, surface water and groundwater, inducing significant risks for natural ecosystems. In this context, the spatial modelling, prediction, efficient use, risk assessment, protection and management of soil resources in the agriculture system are the key to achieving sustainable development goals and ensuring the promotion of an economically, socially and environmental sustainability future. The aim of this book on soil contaminants and environmental health: application of geospatial technology is to identify the soil and sediment quality, sources of contaminants and risk assessment and focuses on the decision-making and planning point of view through GIS data management techniques. This book covers major topics such as spatial modelling in soil and sediments pollution and remediation; radioactive wastes, microbiology of soil and sediments, soil salinity and sodicity, pollution from landfill sites, soil erosion and contamination from agricultural activities, heavy metal pollution and health risk; environmental impact and risk assessment, sustainable land use, landscape management and governance, soil degradation and risk assessment, agricultural soil pollution, pollution due to urban activities, soil pollution by industrial effluents and solid wastes, pollution control and mitigation in extreme environments. The content of this book is of interest to researchers, professionals and policy-makers whose work is in soil science and agriculture practices. The book equips with the knowledge and skills to tackle a wide range of issues manifested in geographic data, including those with scientific, societal and environmental implications.

    Abstract: Interest in solid and hazardous waste management is relatively recent, i.e., in the last three decades, and is driven by regulations in most countries. It began with industrial hazardous waste followed by municipal solid waste, and subsequently by many other categories of waste. This book presents numerous examples and case studies of innovative tools, treatment methods and applications in this growing area of research and development. It describes in detail laboratory methods of measuring the biodegradation of specific organic fractions, like floral waste, and also discusses the treatment of yard and food waste by anaerobic digestion and landfill leachate using constructed wetlands. Case studies are provided that show how remote sensing (RS) and GIS were used to develop an integrated solid waste management plan for a city and to evaluate the environmental impacts of stone quarrying activities. The book also features chapters discussing the implications of natural radioactivity in beach placers and their impact on groundwater and other parts of the environment, as well as the twelve principles of green chemistry and their application in the reuse and recycling of solid waste. Moreover, it includes examples of waste to energy, like refuse derived fuel and biofuel generation and an evaluation of their potential, and covers topics such as life cycle assessment as a tool for developing integrated solid waste management systems and an overview of municipal solid waste management rules, illustrating the importance of technological inputs in the development of regulatory frameworks. Written by leading practitioners and scholars in the field, the book enables readers to understand and apply these principles and practices in their endeavours.

    Monitoring fluid saturation in a gas-water system by utilizing CPET modelling of 4D seismic inversion results (2023)
    In:  XXVIII General Assembly of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-04-20
    Description: It is essential to comprehend how fluid concentration in rocks affects the hydrocarbon reserve and monitor fluid concentration for a sequestration or enhanced oil recovery programme. A prediction of saturation is highly uncertain due to the prior assumption that gas distribution is uniform or patchy in a rock physics theory. We therefore use the capillary pressure equilibrium theory (CPET) to develop a reservoir model that corresponds to the physics of capillary-induced fluid invasion and avoids the uncertainty associated with the type of gas distribution in pores. Assuming that the rock frame has not significantly changed throughout the field, we develop a CPET model utilising the reservoir parameters of the clean and unconsolidated sandstone formation of the Sleipner field, North Sea, which is the first industrial-scale CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉-injection operation ever. The fluid content of the Sleipner field is then estimated by interpreting the time-lapse seismic inversion results using the model. According to our research, CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉 is similar to a uniform distribution at higher concentrations, whereas it is mostly a somewhat patchy type at lower concentrations, or somewhere in between patchy and uniform distribution. Maximum CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉 saturation is predicted using the CPET as 75% of the pore space. The topmost layer's CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉-plume footprint is expanding from zero in 2001 to 7X105 sq. m. in 2010, according to a quantitative interpretation of six time-lapse seismic data sets from 1999 to 2010. Our model predicts that 50 years after the start of injection, CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉 from all layers below will migrate to the top layer.

    Sedimentological and remote sensing data from the reef island Langkai, Spermonde Archipelago, Indonesia (2024)
    PANGAEA
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-06-12
    Description: The data set includes sedimentological data (grain size distribution, facies compositions & radiocarbon ages) and satellite imagery data (shoreline analysis) of the reef island Langkai, SW Sulawesi, Indonesia. The data was collected in order to reconstruct the Holocene and modern (sediment) dynamics over the past ca 6,000 years. Sediment samples were obtained from sediment cores taken by percussion drilling and hand-held (Auger) coring in May 2016 and July 2021. Laboratory analysis of the sediments and shoreline analysis were carried out between 2021 and 2023. The grain size distribution was determined by dry-sieving of the bulk sample into fractions following Wentworth (1922). The subsequent analysis of grain size statistics was done in GRADISTAT v9.1 (Blott & Pye, 2001). The skeletal components of the grain size fractions 〉2 mm, 2-1 mm, 1-0.5 mm and 0.5-0.25 mm were analyzed under a digital microscope by point counting. A total of n=100 skeletal components were identified from each fraction. These results were then used to calculate the relative proportions in each sample. A total of 20 radiocarbon ages from AMS dating were calibrated using OxCal online v4.4 (Bronk Ramsey, 2009), with the MARINE20 curve (Heaton et al., 2020) and a regional reservoir correction of deltaR= 0+-0 as suggested by Southon et al. (2002). The shoreline analysis is based on satellite image data (1999-2023; acquired from multiple sources, see data set for detailed description) and was analyzed with the Digital Shoreline Analysis Tool (Thieler et al., 2009) in ArcGIS.
