Environmental quality refers to the measure of the environmental condition relative to human need and the requirements of one or more species. It is understood with respect to the natural and the built environment, including water pollution, air purity, noise, etc. and the effects of such characteristics on physical and psychological health. The monitoring of environmental quality is useful in environmental impact assessment, as well as in the circumstances when anthropogenic activities pose an environmental risk. Environmental monitoring is done with respect to air, soil and water quality monitoring, which is aided by various sampling methods. Environmental resource management is concerned with the management of the impact of human activities on the environment. It involves the management of both the biotic and abiotic components of the biophysical environment and the relationships among living organisms and their habitats. This book provides significant information of environmental quality, monitoring and management to help develop a better understanding of the current environmental condition and its management. It is a collective contribution of a renowned group of international experts. This book is a vital tool for all researching or studying these fields as it gives incredible insights into emerging trends and concepts.
