The Hudson River Estuary is a comprehensive look at the physical,
chemical, biological and environmental management issues that are
important to our understanding of the Hudson River. Chapters cover
the entire range of fields necessary to understanding the workings
of the Hudson River estuary; the physics, bedrock geological
setting and sedimentological processes of the estuary;
ecosystem-level processes and biological interactions; and
environmental issues such as fisheries, toxic substances, and the
effect of nutrient input from densely populated areas. This 2006
book places special emphasis on important issues specific to the
Hudson, such as the effect of power plants and high concentrations
of PCBs. The chapters are written by specialists at a level that is
accessible to students, teachers and the interested layperson. The
Hudson River Estuary is a fascinating scientific biography of a
major estuary, with relevance to the study of any similar natural
system in the world.
