Abstract

Part III describes different ways in which the discipline of landscape geochemistry may be applied in environmental science. Chapter 18 involves the application of individual concepts and principles of landscape geochemistry to specific problems in environmental geochemistry. From one point of view this application is already a reality, because most studies of environmental geochemistry include the concept of element abundance in one form or another. However, it is the other six basics of the discipline, and their applications in different kinds of fundamental and practical environmental geochemistry, which are the subject of this chapter. In Chapter 19, suggestions are made regarding the application of the discipline of landscape geochemistry as a totality to the study and solution of five classes of environmental problems—one of which involves the dissemination of geological information to nonscientists involved in the political decision-making process about the environment.
