Freshwater Biodiversity is a much underestimated component of global biodiversity, both in its diversity and in its potential to act as models for fundamental research in evolutionary biology and ecosystem studies.

Large lakes are important because of their size and ecological distinctiveness as well as their economic and cultural value.

Most of the diadromous fish of the world have decreased in distribution and abundance since the beginning of the twentieth century. The causes of these trends vary among species and basins but regional human impact (damming, pollution, fisheries) and global change (climate) are suspected to be responsible for these difficulties.

This volume deals with many aspects of the physical and chemical limnology of the Salton Sea, California's largest lake and a lake that may soon to be the object of a multi-billion dollar restoration project.

Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Cladocera, Tatranska Lomnica, Czechoslovakia, September 13-20, 1989

Proceedings of the Workshop on Biogeography of Freshwater Algae, held during the Fifth International Phycological Congress, Qingdao, China, July 1994

Proceedings of the 31st European Marine Biology Symposium, held in St. Petersburg, Russia 9-13 September 1996

Proceedings of the 10th Workshop of the International Association of Phytoplankton Taxonomy and Ecology (IAP), held in Granada, Spain, 21-29 June 1996

This volume combines articles on shallow lakes from leading European scientists in limnology. The volume provides a comprehensive overview of the ecology of shallow lakes, a lake type which differs in prominent ways from deeper lakes.

Proceedings of the Joint BMB 15 and ESCA 27 Symposium (June 9-13, 1997, Aland Islands, Finland)

This work presents the state of the art of aquatic and semi-aquatic ecological restoration projects in The Netherlands. Starting from the conceptual basis of restoration ecology, the successes and failures of hundreds of restoration projects are described.

In this age of increased fundamental and applied research on biodiversity, no single volume was as yet devoted to the various temporal and spatial aspects of aquatic biodiversity.

The collection presents the diversity of approaches that have been used, and provides future directions for the study of `molecular ecology' of aquatic communities, from viruses to fish, and in aquatic systems ranging from freshwater streams and lakes to estuaries and oceans.

Proceedings of the First International Lake Ladoga Symposium: Ecological Problems of Lake Ladoga, St. Petersburg, Russia, 22-26 November 1993

A compilation of refereed papers from the International Symposium held in St. Petersburg, Russia, September 12-17, 1994

This multidisciplinary volume comprehensively reviews our current knowledge of the effects of urban, industrial and agricultural pollution on the biology of shallow coastal marine lagoons.

Ecotones, or boundary zones between land and inland waters (such as lakes, streams and rivers), are the principal routes for transport of organic matter and nutrients across landscapes via physical and biological vectors.

It is enigmatic that Lake Huron, the second of the Great Lakes to be discovered by European explorers, has been the last to be adequately described Iimnologicaliy.

Proceedings of a symposium held in Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada in August 1991

This volume presents a unique set of time series data concerning the environmental and biological dynamics of a pristine alpine-boreal river system in Norway.

This book IS an attempt to review the state-of-the-art in the fields of limnology and of marine biology in the Sudan. The same holds true for the field of marine biology, which lags far behind, despite the existence of a marine field laboratory at Suakin and a research institute at Port Sudan.
