Описание книги

This book provides an insight into the global practices for environmental management of military live-fire training ranges by combining scientific research with practical solutions to ensure continued training capability. The text is divided into four parts: the first provides the background information necessary to understand the scientific principles behind environmental management. The second part comprises methodologies for the environmental risk assessment of explosives and munitions, and the third collates case studies and innovative management techniques that have been applied to reduce remediation costs. Finally, part four considers the design of greener or insensitive munitions to reduce environmental impact. This is an essential reference guide for those with a responsibility for environmental management of military training ranges, and who are required to ensure sustainable long-term training capability.<br><br>
