It largely comprises articles published in Springer journals, which have been thoroughly revised and extended. The volume discusses specific problem areas from relevant Caribbean locations and is supplemented by a large number of data and illustrations. It provides an overview of geotechnical and microbial solutions to prevent post-mining deterioration in this area. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Soil remediation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh93000049|zCaribbean Area.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85020279-781 650 0 Soil pollution|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85124371|zCaribbean Area.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85020279-781 650 0 Anthropogenic soils|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh98005889|zCaribbean Area.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85020279-781 650 7 Soil remediation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1124581 650 7 Soil pollution.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1124546 650 7 Anthropogenic soils.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 810172 650 7 Water supply & treatment.|2bicssc 650 7 Waste management.|2bicssc 650 7 Economic geology.|2bicssc 650 7 Pollution control.|2bicssc 650 7 TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING|xEnvironmental|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 651 7 Caribbean Area.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1244080 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aHarris, Mark.|tGeobiotechnological solutions to anthropogenic disturbances.|bFirst edition 2016.|d[Place of publication not identified] : Springer, 2016|z331930464X|w(OCoLC)936532669 830 0 Environmental earth sciences.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2011024726 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1215263|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
