This book examines one of the most important and complex of the
world's tropical rainforest regions: the greater Panama Canal
Watershed. The Rio Chagres is the primary water source for
operating the Canal, and supplies potable water for municipal use
and electricity generation, but science has left this important
national resource largely unstudied. The text promotes
understanding of the physical and ecological components of an
isolated and largely pristine tropical rainforest.
