This publication comprises the proceedings of the International Conference on Groundwater Quality: Remediation and Protection (GQ’98) held at Tübingen, Germany, in September 1998. As at the two previous conferences in the series, GQM’93* (held in Estonia in 1993) and GQ’95† (held in the Czech Republic in 1995), the major objectives of the GQ’98 Conference were to provide an international forum for state-of-the-art presentations on relevant methodologies and techniques, and to identify the needs for future developments. The conference focused on practical approaches to assess groundwater quality, viable solutions to contamination problems, and methods for protection. Also addressed were directly applicable methods for common field problems. Of particular interest were:

This volume contains 89 papers spread over six topics (Risk assessment and monitoring; Groundwater contamination by NAPLs; Natural attenuation/bioremediation; Reactive transport/enhanced remediation; Reactive barriers; and Modelling). In addition to all orally presented papers, some shorter poster papers are included at the end of each section.

* The proceedings of GQM’93 were published as IAHS Publ. no. 220 in the same series of IAHS Red Books.
† The proceedings of GQ’95 were published as IAHS Publ. no. 225 in the same series of IAHS Red Books.
