Aquatic systems exhibit incredible diversity - from mountain
streams to deep oceans, from lakes and ponds to the estuaries that
link river and sea. Despite their distinct characters, however,
these systems share common properties and, at the level of ecology,
are not all that different after all. But how can this be? Ecology
of Aquatic Systems brings together coverage of freshwater and
marine systems to illustrate the principles and properties that
unify aquatic systems. Using examples drawn from a wide
geographical range, the book presents a broad survey of the field
that acts as the ideal foundation for further study. Opening with a
review of the different types of aquatic system and their
interconnected nature, and the diversity of life within aquatic
systems, the book goes on to explore the key types of aquatic
habitat, emphasising the ecological themes that pervade each
system. Written with students in the centre of the frame, Ecology
of Aquatic Systems retains the succinct, lucid style for which the
first edition was praised, and includes cross-references
throughout, a substantial glossary, and extensive index, to help
readers engage with, and fully understand, the material presented.
With the global importance of aquatic systems becoming more
apparent - and the need for effective management of these systems
becoming increasingly clear - there has never been a more important
time for students to fully grasp the fundamentals of aquatic
systems. Ecology of Aquatic Systems is the ideal course companion
to achieve this goal. Online Resource Centre: The Online Resource
