Produktinformationen zu „Climate Change Impacts on Freshwater Ecosystems (ePub)“
This text examines the impact of climate change on freshwater
ecosystems, past, present and future. It especially considers the
interactions between climate change and other drivers of change
including hydromorphological modification, nutrient loading, acid
deposition and contamination by toxic substances using evidence
from palaeolimnology, time-series analysis, space-for-time
substitution, laboratory and field experiments and process
modelling. The book evaluates these processes in relation to
extreme events, seasonal changes in ecosystems, trends over
decadal-scale time periods, mitigation strategies and ecosystem
recovery.
The book is also concerned with how aspects of hydrophysical,
hydrochemical and ecological change can be used as early indicators
of climate change in aquatic ecosystems and it addresses the
implications of future climate change for freshwater ecosystem
management at the catchment scale.
This is an ideal book for the scientific research community, but
is also accessible to Masters and senior undergraduate
students.

Autoren-Porträt
Martin Kernan is an environmental scientist at theEnvironmental Change Research Centre, University College London. He
has worked extensively on upland lakes and streams across Europe.
His current research interests include the effects of atmospheric
pollution and climate change on freshwater ecosystems. He was
scientific co-ordinator on the Euro-limpacs Project.
Rick Battarbee is Emeritus Professor of Environmental
Change at University College London with research interests in the
use of diatom analysis and palaeolimnology in understanding lake
ecosystem dynamics on decadal time-scales. He is a Fellow of the
Royal Society and Foreign Member of the Norwegian Academy of
Science and Letters. He has published over 200 research papers,
including eight in Nature. He is chair of the International
Paleolimnology Association and was presented with the Ruth Patrick
Award for Environmental Problem Solving by the American Society for
Limnology and Oceanography in 2009.
Brian Moss has been Holbrook Gaskell Professor of Botany
at the University of Liverpool since 1989 and a freshwater
ecologist for many years. He has held posts in Malawi, the USA and
UK and has taught or carried out research on six continents over
forty-five years. He is an experimentalist whose current research
involves eutrophication, lake restoration and climate change and,
in addition to the conventional long list of papers in learned
journals, he has published a well-known text book on the Ecology of
Freshwaters, and a New Naturalist book on 'The Broads'.
He is also much concerned with wider global environmental problems
and how art and poetry might be used to get over messages about the
environment to the wider public. He has been President of the
British Phycological Society, Vice-president of the British
Ecological Society and editor of the Journal of Ecology, and
recently was elected President of the International Association for
Limnology. He was awarded the

Naumann-Thienemann Medal in 2007 for his research and leadership in
creating new understanding of shallow lake function. Despite all
this he would want to be remembered as a non-establishment,
liberated iconoclast.
