Description
Now in its second edition, Methods in Stream Ecology covers six important areas of the field: Physical Stream Ecology, Material Transport and Storage, Stream Biotia, Community Interactions, Ecosystem Process, and Ecosystem Quality. This bestselling title has been significantly revised and updated, providing a complete series of field and laboratory protocols in stream ecology.
Readership
Advamced undergraduate, graduate students, faculty, researchers, federal, state and local government officials interested in and responsible for stream evaluation and monitoring. Previous editions of the book have been used in courses.
