It has been more than ten years since the last edition of the
bestselling Restoration and Management of Lakes and Reservoirs. In
that time, lake and reservoir management and restoration
technologies have evolved and an enhanced version of this standard
resource is long overdue. Completely revised and updated, the third
edition continues the tradition of providing comprehensive coverage
of the chemical, physical, and biological processes of
eutrophication and its control. The authors describe the
eutrophication process, outline methods for developing a
pre-management and restoration diagnosis-feasibility study, and
provide detailed descriptions of scientifically sound management
and restoration methods.
See what's new in the Third Edition:
- New chapters on aquatic plant ecology and management
- Emphasis on freshwater availability
- A regional framework for water quality attainment
- Methods of lake and reservoir restoration and management
- Updates or revisions to all other chapters
The book features in-depth discussions of techniques used to
manage eutrophication in standing water bodies, procedures for
using these techniques, the principles involved, and successes and
failures through a selection of case studies and cost analyses.
Each chapter includes an introduction to the scientific basis of
the problem, a description of the methods and procedures, and
presents several case histories. Potential negative impacts and
costs, where known, are described. A useful classroom text,
reference manual, and general guide, this is the text against which
all other resources in this field are measured.
