The key features are: broad coverage of groundwaters, streams, wetlands, and lakes; features basic scientific concepts and environmental applications throughout; includes many figures, sidebars of fascinating applications, and biographies of practicing aquatic ecologists; materials are presented to facilitate learning, including an extensive glossary, questions for thought, worked examples of equations, and real life problems; written at a level understandable to most undergraduate students, with explanations of complex contemporary concepts in freshwater ecology described to promote understanding. Featuring small chapters that mainly stand alone, this book can be read in the order most suited to the specific application.
