Drought and Aquatic Ecosystems: Effects and Responses [NOOK Book]

From the Publisher

“This book provides a valuable source of information for both freshwater ecologists and resource managers.” (Bulletin of the British Ecological Society, 1 June 2012)

“However, the extensive review of the global literature, combined with the thorough discussions of drought-related concepts and definitions, make this book useful for those working in aquatic ecosystems worldwide.” (Austral Ecology, 1 November 2012)

“It is balanced across taxa, habitat, and continents, and provides insightful ideas to guide future research. As such, it is an important contribution to aquatic science that is well worth the read.” (Society for Freshwater Science, 1 July 2012)

“Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (Choice, 1 March 2012)

“Overall, it proves extremely useful to bring together the material in the core chapters with the fairly extensive contextual material in the surrounding chapters; no doubt this will benefit many researchers needing an introduction to this topic. There is no doubt that this book will be read widely and will likely provide a basis and impetus for numerous future research projects.” (Freshwater Biology, 1 September 2012)

“This book is a major synthesis of what is known about drought and aquatic systems. It is balanced across taxa, habitat, and continents, and provides insightful ideas to guide future research. As such, it is an important contribution to aquatic science that is well worth the read.” (Freshwater Science, 16 July 2012)
