Description

The Rhine is one of Europe's most researched rivers and this book presents a compilation of that research in one volume. Topics include the river's catchment area, its hydrology, the development of water protection requirements and early warning systems on the Rhine. Additionally the book describes many aspects of water quality from the Rhine but also from alpine lakes, tributaries, estuary and adjacent coastal waters connected with the river.
