This volume presents approaches and methodologies for predicting
the structure and diversity of key aquatic communities (namely,
diatoms, benthic macroinvertebrates and fish), under natural
conditions and under man-made disturbance. The intent is to offer
an organized means for modeling, evaluating and restoring
freshwater ecosystems. Includes a CD-Rom illustrating the use of
the modern modelling techniques.

Advanced Modelling Techniques Studying Global Changes in
Environmental Sciences discusses the need for immediate and
effective action, guided by a scientific understanding of ecosystem
function, to alleviate current pressures on the environment.
Research, especially in Ecological Modeling, is crucial to support
the sustainable development paradigm, in which the economy,
society, and the environment are integrated and positively
reinforce each other. Content from this book is drawn from the 2013
conference of the International Society for Ecological Modeling
(ISEM), an important and active research community contributing to
this arena. Some progress towards gaining a better understanding of
the processes of global change has been achieved, but much more is
needed. This conference provides a forum to present current
research using models to investigate actions towards mitigating and
adapting to change.
