内容説明
The first of two, this volume assesses and reports on the scientific and ecological principles that are relevant for developing an integrated approach to rivers management. It is based on two decades of research focusing on the ecological impact of water development projects and scientists are now using their accumulated knowledge to address applied problems. It is intended for rivers engineers, Water Authorities and water resource managers as a reference and directory to the application of ecologically sound practices in waterways management. This volume commences with an overview of river systems. Subsequent sections cover the physicochemical environment emphasizing the importance of the factors defined by biota. A major section discusses biota - from micro-organisms to vertebrates - and their importance to rivers. Ecosystems and processes are discussed in full and final chapters bring together all the properties and processes discussed earlier in descriptions of five major river types - sub-temperate, temperate, large alluvial tropical, semi-arid and mountain.

内容説明
Fast changing legislation and increasing environmental awareness amongst the non-scientific community demand that the modern approach to the management of rivers and water resources should be based on a sound understanding and application of the scientific and ecological principles that underlie freshwater processes. In two volumes, The Rivers Handbook offers an expert and exhaustive insight into the principles, methods and tools of modern river management; always within an integrated and environmentally acceptable framework. This second volume develops the principles and philosophies epounded in the first volume into the management sphere, organising the approach around problems, diagnosis and treatment.
