About this title

Synopsis

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. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

This volume comprises the proceedings of an International Symposium convened by the British Ecological Society and the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography. The contributors identify similarities and differences between freshwater and marine ecosystems, and examine the extent to which the scale of approach influences the patterns observed and the underlying processes implied.
