Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, with its thorough research and analysis, delves into a pressing issue: the presence of elevated levels of selenium and other toxic substances found within shallow groundwater on the west side of the San Joaquin Valley. The author examines the genesis of this environmental prob…lem, tracing its roots to the implementation of irrigation projects and the subsequent rise in water tables, which in turn led to the leaching of salts and trace elements into the groundwater. The author presents a detailed examination of the environmental consequences of this pollution, particularly its detrimental impact on fish and wildlife populations, as well as the potential risks to human health. Furthermore, the book explores the current management of the problem through evaporation ponds, highlighting the associated challenges and drawbacks, such as the mortality of aquatic birds due to selenium poisoning. The book concludes with a comprehensive analysis of potential solutions, ranging from source control measures to advanced water treatment technologies. It emphasizes the role of collaboration between stakeholders, including water districts, farmers, and environmental agencies, in developing and implementing effective strategies to mitigate this complex issue. Overall, this book offers a valuable contribution to the understanding of drainage-related problems in the San Joaquin Valley, providing insights that are crucial for developing sustainable water management practices and protecting the ecological health of the region.
