Earth and Environmental Sciences: Geoenvironmental Science and Geotechnical Engineering
The environmental pollution caused by industrialization and urbanization not only constrains the sustainable development of the global economy, but also poses enormous challenges on both human beings′ health and the ecosystem safety. Research on geoenvironmental science is essential for the protection of soil-water environment, e.g., geology investigation, contaminant source identification, pollution prevention, and in-site remediation. The scope of this topical collection covers, but is not limited to, the following topics: (1) Source, spatial distribution and risk assessment of pollutants; (2) Remediation technology and engineering application of polluted sites; (3) Multi-field coupled effects of polluted soil-ground systems; (4) AI and big data technologies for geo-environmental protection; (5) Pollution monitoring technology and long-term safety evaluation; (6) Properties and resource utilization of polluted soils.
