The Lakes Handbook, Volume 1: Limnology and Limnetic Ecology Hardcover - 2004 - 1st Edition
by Patrick O'Sullivan (Editor); C. S. Reynolds (Editor)
"The Lakes Handbook" provides an up-to-date overview of the application of ecologically sound approaches, methods, and tools using experience gained around the world for an understanding of lakes and their management.
First line
From the beginnings of modern science, lakes have fulfilled a focus of attention.
From the rear cover
Continuing concern about water supply and quality, ecosystem sustainability and restoration demands that the modern approach to the management of lakes and reservoirs should be based on a sound understanding of the application of the scientific and ecological principles that underlie freshwater processes.
The Lakes Handbook provides an up-to-date overview of the application of ecologically sound approaches, methods and tools using experience gained around the world for an understanding of lakes and their management. Volume one of the Handbook addresses the physical and biological aspects of lakes pertinent to lake management, emphasising those aspects particularly relevant to large, still bodies of water. Volume two then considers lake management, with particular emphasis on sustainability, restoration and rehabilitation.
This handbook will be invaluable to ecologists, earth scientists, physical geographers and hydrologists involved in limnological research, as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students looking for authoritative reviews of the key areas of limnological study.
