The broad diversity of running waters - from torrential mountain brooks, to large, lowland rivers, to great river systems whose basins occupy sub-continents - makes river ecosystems appear overwhelming complex. A central theme of this book is that although the settings are often unique, the processes at work in running waters are general and increasingly well understood.
Even as our scientific understanding of stream ecosystems rapidly advances, the pressures arising from diverse humanactivities continue to threaten the health of rivers worldwide. This book presents vital new findings concerning human impacts, and the advances in pollution control, flow management, restoration, and conservation planning that point to practical solutions.
Reviews of the first edition:
".. an unusually lucid and judicious reassessment of the state of stream ecology"
Science Magazine
"..provides an excellent introduction to the area for advanced undergraduates and graduate students..." Limnology & Oceanography
"... a valuable reference for all those interested in the ecology of running waters." Transactions of the American Fisheries Society
Reviews of the second edition:
"Overall, a must for the field centre and a good starter text in stream ecology." (TEN News, October, 2007)
"Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty." (P. R. Pinet, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (7), 2008)
"... a very good, fluidly readable book which contains the latest key scientific knowledge of the ecology of running waters." (Daniel Graeber, International Review of Hydrobiology, Vol. 94 (2), 2009)
