内容説明
Freshwater Algae: Identification and Use as Bioindicatorsprovides a comprehensive guide to temperate freshwater algae, withadditional information on key species in relation to environmentalcharacteristics and implications for aquatic management. Thebook uniquely combines practical material on techniques and waterquality management with basic algal taxonomy and the role of algaeas bioindicators. Freshwater Algae: Identification and Use as Bioindicatorsis divided into two parts. Part I describes techniques for thesampling, measuring and observation of algae and then looks at therole of algae as bioindicators and the implications for aquaticmanagement. Part II provides the identification of major genera and250 important species. Well illustrated with numerous original illustrations andphotographs, this reference work is essential reading for allpractitioners and researchers concerned with assessing and managingthe aquatic environment.
