Robert Livingston is a respected international authority on ecosystem studies of freshwater, estuarine, and marine environments. In the last two decades, aquatic pollution and programs to restore aquatic ecosystems to health have been increasingly the focus of environmental activities worldwide. This book is the final volume of a trilogy derived from 70 field-years of data from 10 different coastal systems on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Restoration of Aquatic Systems is a synthetic look at the restoration of aquatic systems, emphasizing the functional basis that supports such activities and reviewing the evidence of recovery.

A narrative account of how estuaries around the world are being altered by human forces and human-induced global climate changes, Climate Change and Coastal Ecosystems: Long-Term Effects of Climate and Nutrient Loading on Trophic Organization chronicles a more than 40-year-old research effort conducted by Dr. Robert J. Livingston and his research team at Florida State University. Designed to evaluate system-level responses to natural and anthropogenic nutrient loading and long-term climate changes, the study focused on the northeast Gulf of Mexico river-bay systems, and concentrated on phytoplankton/benthic macrophyte productivity and associated food web organization. It addressed the changes of food web structure relative to long-term trends of climatological conditions, and was carried out using a combination of field-descriptive and experimental approaches.
