This book reviews the latest research and developments concerning
the biodiversity and biocontamination assessment of aquatic
ecosystems in Poland. The authors present expert analyses of the
current biological status of Polish surface waters, and examine a
broad range of elements related to aquatic ecosystems, including
macrophytes, phytoplankton, zooplankton and macroinvertebrates,
microorganisms, fish, and selected invasive aquatic species. A set
of conservation and restoration practices, and a review of
protected sites within the Polish basins and catchment areas, are
also provided. This book and the companion volume Polish River
Basins and Lakes - Part I: Hydrology and Hydrochemistry offer
valuable resources for students, environmental chemists,
biologists, geologists, hydrologists and surface waters managers
interested in the environmental conditions of Poland's surface
waters.
This book offers a comprehensive review of the current
environmental conditions and chemical changes in Polish surface
waters. Poland is situated in an area that was covered by
glaciations in the distant past. The subsequent periods of glacial
advance and retreat produced a continuous rejuvenation of the
landscape, and the discharge of surplus water from this area was
constantly transformed by morphological, climatic and hydrological
changes. Written by expert contributors, the book's respective
chapters address the impact of current climatic conditions on the
functioning of surface water reservoirs in Poland, while also
exploring the country's hydrographic and hydrological network and
the trophic state of its rivers and lakes, their eutrophication and
threats. Particular attention is paid to sources of pollution,
above all, the chemical pollution of water and sediments. Together
with the companion book Polish River Basins and Lakes - Part II:
Biological Status and Water Management, it provides students,
environmental chemists, biologists, geologists, hydrologists and
surface waters managers with authoritative information on Poland's
current environmental status.
