Lake Titicaca, because of its area and volume and its situation at
high attitude within the tropics, is a unique hydrological site in
the world. It should be noted that it stands at the transition
point between two very distinct geographical regions: the desert
fringe of the Pacific coast to the west and the great Amazonian
forest extending to the Atlantic coast to the east. Many scientists
have been attracted to the lake in the past because of its unusual
limnological features. In this book the editors have compiled an
exhaustive review of current knowledge from the existing literature
and from the results of more recent observations. It is certain
that this book will become the essential reference work for
scientists wanting to make progress in revealing the lake's
secrets. It can be stated unequivocally that this work constitutes
a complete review of the present state of knowledge on Lake
Titicaca and that it provides the latest results of research on
this habitat.
