Comparing freshwater and marine ecosystems, this proceedings volume examines the extent to which the scale of approach influences the ecological patterns observed and the underlying processes implied. Chapters span the spectrum of aquatic systems, from small temporary pockets of water held in plant stems to the deep oceans; and address temporal scales from short-term behavior to evolutionary biology, biogeographic patterns, and paleoecology.
