The result of a major tour de force by two renowned and experienced experts, this unique and richly illustrated reference presents a wealth of data on limnology history, water as a substrate, lakes' origins and aquatic biota. Besides a general part, it gives special focus to neotropical limnology, prevalently applicable in countries in the Southern Hemisphere.Starting with the essentials, some definitions and a historical account, this volume then details the main interaction mechanisms with physical and chemical faLimnologyLatin AmericaLimnologyBrazilReservoirsLatin AmericaReservoirsBrazilLimnologyLimnologyReservoirsReservoirs551.48RB 10360rvkTundisi J.
