'The previous edition was a milestone in its time. Both authors are outstanding and well-known. I believe that there is a worldwide need for this book.'
Martin Dokulil, Institute for Limnology, Austria
As concerns over the protection of the world's water resources are coming to the forefront of the global environmental agenda, Earthscan are releasing a completely revised and expanded edition of the the 1974 classic 'The Algal Bowl: Overfertilization of the World’s Freshwaters and Estuaries', the leading international work on the nutrient enrichment of lakes and other freshwater resources.
Written by leading, prize-winning world authorities on water resource management, this book represents the most accessible and comprehensive overview of the key issues to date, and will be invaluable for a broad range of students and professionals.
‘The first Algal Bowl was a classic and really was influential for both the study of lakes and for people who appreciated the environment. David Schindler is the ideal co-author for a new edition.’
Daniel Conley, University of Lund, Sweden
