Freshwater Arctic Tundra Wetlands --IndexWetlands are prominent landscapes throughout North America. The general characteristics of wetlands are controversial, thus there has not been a systematic assessment of different types of wetlands in different parts of North America, or a compendium of the threats to their conservation. Wetland Habitats of North America adopts a geographic and habitat approach, in which experts familiar with wetlands from across North America provide analyses and syntheses of their particular region of study. Addressing a broad audience of students, scientists, engineers, environmental managers, and policy makers, this book reviews recent, scientifically rigorous literature directly relevant to understanding, managing, protecting, and restoring wetland ecosystems of North America.WetlandsNorth AmericaWetland ecologyNorth AmericaWetland conservationNorth Americaamerican ecology.american ecosystems.american environment.climate change.coastal ecosystems.coastal.ecology of lakes and ponds.endangered ecosystems.environment and policy.environmental conservation.environmental protection.environmental scientists.freshwater ecology.freshwater ecosystems.global warming.going green.habitat protection.marshland.north american landscapes.protecting our environment.scientists.swampland.tidal wetlands.wetland literature.wetland scientists.zoology.WetlandsWetland ecologyWetland conservation577.68097Batzer Darold P1719604Baldwin Andrew H1719605MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809655903321Wetland habitats of North America4117558UNINA
