"A derivative of the Encyclopedia of Inland Waters, Lake Ecosystem Ecology examines the workings of the lake and reservoir ecosystems of our planet. Information and perspectives crucial to the understanding and management of current environmental problems are covered, such as eutrophication, acid rain and climate change. Because the articles are drawn from an encyclopedia, the articles are easily accessible to interested members of the public, such as conservationists and environmental decision makers. It includes an up-to-date summary of global aquatic ecosystems and issues; covers current environmental problems and management solutions; and features full-color figures and tables to support the text and aid in understanding."--Publisher's description.

"From the mysterious depths of Lake Vostok, Antarctica, to tropical floodplain lakes, inland bodies of water share many distinctive features. How are they formed? Can 'dead lakes' be revived? What can lakes tell us about Earth's past and present? Warwick Vincent explains the main aspects of lake science, or limnology. Using examples from across the world, he describes the environmental features and ecology of lakes, and their value to society. Outlining the mportance of sustaining these complex ecosystems, he considers the impact of factors such as climate, seasons, salinity, and oxygen on lake biodiversity, and the threats imposed by rising human populations and climate change." --Inside cover.
