Proceedings of the Second International Congress of Limnology and Oceanography held in Evian, May 25--28, 1993

Proceedings of the VIIth International Symposium on the Biology of the Turbellaria, Abo/Turku, Finland

Proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Cladocera, Bergen, Norway, 9--17 August 1993

Proceedings of the 2nd International Symposium on Athalassic (Inland) Saline Lakes, held in Saskatchewan, June 1982

The monitoring of benthic diatoms, macrophytes, macroinvertebrates and fish will be the backbone of future water management in Europe. The 36 articles presented will provide scientists and water managers with a unique insight into background and application of state-of-the-art monitoring tools and techniques.

Advances in Algal Biology: A Commemoration of the Work of Rex Lowe was written by students and colleagues of Rex Lowe to acknowledge his esteemed career that included exceptional contributions to research and teaching. Papers in the book cover a variety of topics in algal ecology, focusing on benthic algal ecology in freshwater ecosystems.

Proceedings of the Twelfth International Diatom Symposium, held at Renesse, the Netherlands, August 30--September 5, 1992

This Atlas attempts to dispel some of the mystery surrounding stomatocysts, to facilitate the accurate identification of individual cyst morphotypes, and to encourage other workers to begin using these important indicators of environmental change.

Long-term population monitoring is an important tool in our investigations of the role waterbirds play in their environment. Papers presented in this volume further our understanding of the important role that limnology plays in determining habitat suitability for waterbirds.

Their ecological success is based on their distinct pattern of reproduction: a large part of them, the Monogononta, are famous for their unique mode of reproduction with parthenogenetic females and a rather rare appearance of sexuality with males.

Severely increasing anthropic pressure on natural water bodies sets a societal context where it is urgent to better understand the role of microbial biodiversity in aquatic ecosystem dynamics and resilience to perturbations.

Proceedings of the International Symposium held at Mombasa, Kenya, September 24-30, 1990

This book summarizes research from 50 years of intensive study of a pristine subalpine lake ecosystem and its catchment. Coverage spans a range of topics, including studies focusing on changes in ice cover, water temperature, zooplankton, benthos and fish.

Topics covered include the evolution of jellyfish blooms, the impacts of climate change on jellyfish populations, advances in acoustic and molecular methods used to study jellyfish, the role of jellyfish in food webs and nutrient cycles, and the ecology of the benthic stages of the jellyfish life history.

Ancient lakes are exceptional freshwater environments that have continued to exist for hundreds of thousands of years. They have long been recognized as centres of biodiversity and hotspots of evolution. This work features the contributions that deal with patterns and processes of biological diversification in three prominent ancient lake systems.

The great diversity of ostracod applications in biology and palaeontology is clearly illustrated by eighteen papers from the 15th International Symposium on Ostracoda. You'll learn how ostracods are used as model groups in a variety of research studies, ranging from evolutionary biology to climate change.

Rivers around the world are threatened by changes in land use, climate, hydrological cycles, and biodiversity. This book explores a wide range of determining factors that feed in to global change and examines the impact they have on river ecosystems.

Jellyfish generally are considered to be nuisances because they interfere with human activities by stinging swimmers, clogging power plant intakes and nets of fishermen, killing fish in aquaculture pens, and being both predators and competitors of fish.

Phytoplankton responses to human impact at different scales provides a state-of-the-art review of changes in the phytoplankton assemblages determined by human alterations of lakes and rivers.

Proceedings of the 1st Maricult Conference held in Trondheim, Norway, 25-28 June 2000

Proceedings of the Fourth Conference on Fish Telemetry in Europe

Publications from 7th International Conference on Salt Lakes, held in Death Valley National Park, California, USA, September 1999

The Ecology and Etiology of Newly Emerging Marine Diseases is a unique contribution to an entirely new field of scientific investigation. For the first time, material presented in this book identifies patterns and trends in the abundance and distribution of disease phenomena in the marine environment.

Proceedings of the 7th Colloquium Crustacea Decapoda Mediterranea, held at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, Portugal, 6-9 September 1999

Proceedings of the 34th European Marine Biology Symposium, held in Ponta Delgada (Azores), Portugal, 13-17 September, 1999

The fascination of the Annelida to scientists lies in the beauty of their structures and the functionality of their body plan, the tremendous adaptive radiation which has made it possible for these animals to colonize almost all marine, limnic and terrestrial biotopes.

This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of aquatic ecology, river system functioning, and water surface pollution, to postgraduate students, to the institutions involved in water resource management, and to the drinking water and waste water treatment industries.
