Diffuse Pollution IV: Selected Proceedings of 4th International Conference on Diffuse Pollution, Held in Bangkok, Thailand, 16-21 January, 2000

by K. Yamada

Nowadays diffuse (non-point) pollution is an important issue that cannot be overlooked. Humankind exists in such close proximity with the natural environment that mutual impact is inevitable. The International Conference on Diffuse Pollution provides a regular forum for the exchange of information from scientific and technical studies on pollution problems and relevant management strategies. As a result better techniques are developed that lead to greater protection of the world's natural resources from pollution. These proceedings are made up of selected, peer-reviewed contributions to the Fourth Conference on Diffuse Pollution of the IAWQ(IWA) Specialist Group on Diffuse Pollution at Bangkok during January 2000. From the original 86 oral and poster presentations, 28 papers have been selected for these proceedings. These papers are in seven focus urban issues; watershed analysis; agriculture and forestry; groundwater; modeling analysis and application; policy consideration; and application of geographic information systems.
