With increasing rates of pollution to both land and aquatic environments, regulations for the quality of our waters are necessarily becoming more stringent. In the light of recent epidemiological studies new criteria are being established for the safety of our recreational waters. In order for such criteria to be developed an established statistical framework needs to be in place.
Statistical Framework for Recreational Water Quality Criteria and Monitoring offers a practical guide to the statistical methods used for assessing health effects and monitoring and modelling water quality Both traditional and novel sampling designs are discussed. Written by a team of international experts in the field, this book sets out to provide an essential structure for the monitoring of water quality.
· Proposes a much-needed framework for the monitoring of water quality, and provides practical guidance on the statistical methods involved.
· Covers risk characterization, empirical modelling, sensitivity analysis and measures of robustness.
· Details sampling methods and quality control approaches.
· Presents crucial, real-life results from recent large-scale studies of water quality, central to the development of the area.
· Accompanied by a supplementary website hosting data sets and tools for data analysis.
The book is primarily aimed at public health officials, staff of regulatory bodies and students and faculty members of environmental and statistical science courses. There is also much to benefit readers from environmental research and risk analysis.

David Banister, "Transport Planning, 2 Ed"
MgH | 2009 | ISBN: 0415261716 | 320 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Completely revised and restructured, the new edition of Transport Planning describes the evolution of transport policies and planning, linking the past with the contemporay and future debates.
A Retrospective Analysis describes the recent past and how the current situation in research and practice on transport planning has developed, including a new chapter on events since 1997, with the difficulties of finding the means to introduce the social market. The second part of the book begins with a Comparative Analysis of experience in three European countries (Germany, France and the Netherlands) and the United States. It covers both transport planning and evaluation, where different approaches have been developed in response to national policy issues and the different cultural and analytical traditions. The final part is a Prospective Analysis of the key issues facing transport planners in the twenty-first century.

Tracers in Hydrology
By Christian Leibundgut, Piotr Maloszewski, Christoph Kulls
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons, Inc., USA
Number Of Pages: 432
Publication Date: 2009-12-09
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0470518855
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780470518854
Size: 8 MB
Tracers in Hydrology and Water Research is a comprehensive overview of the application of natural and artificial tracers in hydrology and environmental research. Taking a unique approach by providing the reader with a systematic and state of the art description of natural and artificial tracers, the book also covers key analytical techniques and applications, and modern tracer methods in the context of systematic hydrology. Tracers have become a primary tool for process investigation, qualitative and quantitative system analysis and integrated resource management. This book will outline the fundamentals of the subject, and examine the latest research findings, clearly showing the entire process of tracer application through the inclusion of numerous integrated case studies.
As many techniques derive from different scientific disciplines (chemistry, biology, physics), the effort of compilation and integration into modern hydrology and environmental science research and application requires substantial continuity and experience, which certifies this group of authors.
This book will be an invaluable reference not only for students and researchers within the field of Hydrology and Hydrogeology but also for engineers and other tracer techniques applying users.

Fluid Flow Measurement: A Practical Guide to Accurate Flow Measurement
Fluid Flow Measurement: A Practical Guide to Accurate Flow Measurement
E. Loy Upp, Paul J. LaNasa
Gulf Professional Publishing | December 15, 2001 | 088415758X
296 pages | pdf | 13.4 MB
Second Edition
There is a tendency to make flow measurement a highly theoretical and technical subject but what most influences quality measurement is the practical application of meters, metering principles, and metering equipment and the use of quality equipment that can continue to function through the years with proper maintenance have the most influence in obtaining quality measurement. This guide provides a review of basic laws and principles, an overview of physical characteristics and behavior of gases and liquids, and a look at the dynamics of flow. The authors examine applications of specific meters, readout and related devices, and proving systems. Practical guidelines for the meter in use, condition of the fluid, details of the entire metering system, installation and operation, and the timing and quality of maintenance are also included.
This book is dedicated to condensing and sharing the authors' extensive experience in solving flow measurement problems with design engineers, operating personnel (from top supervisors to the newest testers), academically-based engineers, engineers of the manufacturers of flow meter equipment, worldwide practitioners, theorists, and people just getting into the business.
The authors' many years of experience are brought to bear in a thorough review of fluid flow measurement methods and applications. Avoids theory and focuses on presentation of practical data for the novice and veteran engineer.
Useful for a wide range of engineers and technicians (as well as students) in a wide range of industries and applications.

I have encountered a problem with Radimpex Tower 6 ver.1408
When I try to start the program a message appears "The program can not be started. Error -525".
Does anyone have an idea what does it mean and how to resolve it?
The program works fine for a few days before starting to show this message. If I reinstall it everything goes normal.
This happens on different computers. On some of them this error occurs even after 1-2 hours working with Tower.
Moderators,
What happened to the recent posts scrollbox and the recent posts window at the bottom? They were super useful in navigating to threads that were recently posted.
