Long Island Sound is not only the most heavily used estuary in North America, it is also one of the most beautiful waterways, with picturesque seascapes and landfalls. But centuries of pollution and other abuse have gradually been killing off its marine life and have pushed the Sound to the brink of disaster. This fascinating book traces the history of the Sound and its use as a resource from the time of contact between the Native Americans and Dutch traders through the suburban sprawl of recent decades--and tells how a group of scientists and citizens has been working to save the Sound from ruin. Tom Andersen begins by describing the dramatic events of the summer of 1987, when a condition called hypoxia (lack of dissolved oxygen in the water brought about by a combination of pollution and other factors) killed large numbers of fish and lobsters in the Sound. He discusses how scientists first documented and explained the development of hypoxia and how research and cleanup are now being carried out to restore the Sound. Interweaving current events, natural history, and human history, Andersen presents a cautionary tale of exploitation without concern for preservation.

Fine Sediment in Open Water is mainly written for professional engineers working in estuaries and coastal systems. It provides the basis for a fundamental understanding of the physical, biological and chemical processes governing the transport and fate of fine sediment in open water and explains how this understanding can steer engineering studies with numerical models. This is a unique treatment of processes at a variety of spatial and temporal scales, from the micro-scale (colloid scale) to system-wide scales, and from intra-tidal time periods to decades.Beginning with the processes governing the transport and fate of fine sediment in shallow open water, the first eight chapters are dedicated to the hydrodynamic, soil mechanics and biological processes which determine fine sediment concentrations in the water column, in/on the bed and the exchange of sediment between bed and water column. The next two chapters treat the net fluxes of fine sediment as a function of asymmetries in forcing and sediment properties. These fundamental processes form the basis for the subsequent chapters on modeling in which the governing equations are presented, and tools are provided to aggregate and parameterize the various processes elaborated in the first eight chapters. Further, any numerical model study should be based on a conceptual model, as illustrated in the final five chapters, which provide examples of numerical modeling studies on the transport and fate of fine sediment in a coastal sea, an estuary, a tidal river, a lake, and around and within a harbor basin.Related Link(s)

Not all bottled water is created equal but how do you differentiate natural, untreated waters from the thousands of processed waters? This illustrated guide reveals the epicurean pleasures of water and shows you how to select bottled waters that will tempt your palate.Reviews 100 of the world's most distinct bottled water brands, their sources, composition, flavors, and historical backgrounds, along with expert analysis and full-color photos throughout.Explains the characteristics of bottled waters and how they can be used to create food pairings and epicurean experiences.Introduction to the Bottled Water Etiquette (stemware, temperature, etc.).Reveals the intriguing history of water, from the geology of natural springs and the origins of spa culture to the latest techniques for harvesting and bottling water.Any culinary experience is enhanced by fine bottled water. Let FINEWATERS show you how.Paired with the right food, served in the proper stemware, and enjoyed at the right temperature, bottled water can be an epicurean delight. But many bottled water drinkers are exposed to only a few major brands, and there has never been a guide for connoisseurs until now.In this book, water sommelier Michael Mascha elevates bottled water to its rightful place of prominence on our tables. Inside, you will find reviews and tasting notes for the world's most distinctive naturally-occurring bottled waters, as well as a comprehensive guide to choosing, tasting, and serving bottled water.From pairing water with food to selecting the perfect glassware, Mascha guides you through theetiquette necessary to fully appreciate water's complex flavors. FineWaters opens new culinary vistas and puts any water drinker on the cutting edge of this new trend.MICHAEL MASCHA created FineWaters in 2002 and was one of the founders of the Fine Water Society in 2008, and the Fine Water Academy in 2018. He helped create the premium category and told the story that "water is not just water" that is has terroir like wine and can be matched with food and curated by water sommeliers.

The definitive guide to understanding and managing the effects of water on buildings Water in Buildings: An Architect's Guide to Moisture and Mold is a detailed and highly useful reference to help architects and other design professionals create dry, healthy environments, without jeopardizing a project with poor liability management. Much more than a book of "quick fixes," this practical guide illuminates an essential understanding of the "whys" of moisture problems, including valuable information on how water behaves and how its performance can be anticipated and managed in building design. With a special emphasis on water's role in creating mold, an issue of growing concern and liability, Water in Buildings offers the most up-to-date information on rainwater management, below-grade water management, foundations, wall and roof construction, mechanical systems, moisture, and much more! Providing authoritative guidance to designers and builders, this definitive guide features: * Clear explanations of how water interacts with building materials and equipment * An in-depth exploration of the paths of leaks * Numerous case studies on such well-known structures as Mount Vernon, Independence Hall, and Wingspan (Frank Lloyd Wright) * Numerous descriptive drawings and photographs

This book tells the story of Mia Crane, a lonely but talented young graphic artist from a dysfunctional family, who receives an unexpected inheritance that brings her back to the small town of her paternal heritage, into the orbit of the large and exuberant Lyons clan, and most importantly into the life of playboy architect Drake Lyons. For the first time in her life she has a place that is truly her own and a chance for a new beginning, but there are those who, for a variety of reasons, do not want Mia staying in Waterford. Dealing with occult rumors concerning her deceased great aunt, an urban legend of Confederate gold hidden in her newly acquired house, and the jealousy of other women with designs on the new man in her life, Mias decision to stay is fraught with questions and with potential dangers. The story asks whether the woman who has never been loved and the man who has never been in love can find happiness together in Waterford, and what treasures are worth risking everything for.

Water went from being a free natural resource to one of the most successful commercial products of the last one hundred years. That's a big story, and water is big business. Gleick exposes the true reasons we've turned to the bottle, from fear mongering by business interests and our own vanity to the breakdown of public systems and global inequities.

When the people of Flint, Michigan, turned on their faucets in April 2014, the water pouring out was poisoned with lead and other toxins. Through a series of disastrous decisions, the state government had switched the city’s water supply to a source that corroded Flint’s aging lead pipes. Complaints about the foul-smelling water were dismissed: the residents of Flint, mostly poor and African American, were not seen as credible, even in matters of their own lives. It took eighteen months of activism by city residents and a band of dogged outsiders to force the state to admit that the water was poisonous. By that time, twelve people had died and Flint’s children had suffered irreparable harm. The long battle for accountability and a humane response to this man-made disaster has only just begun. In the first full account of this American tragedy, Anna Clark's The Poisoned City recounts the gripping story of Flint’s poisoned water through the people who caused it, suffered from it, and exposed it. It is a chronicle of one town, but could also be about any American city, all made precarious by the neglect of infrastructure and the erosion of democratic decision making. Places like Flint are set up to fail—and for the people who live and work in them, the consequences can be fatal.
