In 17 chapters written by Portuguese researchers, it was intended to cover the various areas of research linked to rivers. Thus, this book begins with the fundamental physical aspects of rivers: hydrology and sedimentology. Eight chapters follow devoted to aquatic organisms: algae, fungi and bacteria, aquatic and riverine vegetation, invertebrates, fish, amphibians and reptiles, mammals, and birds. The following chapters address human activities that cause major changes in ecosystem quality, ecological monitoring, and restoration of degraded river sectors. The last chapters deal with the last section of a river, before the see, the estuaries, and the final one the thermo-mineral springs, environments closely linked to water courses. 517 $aRios de Portugal 610 $aAlgae 610 $aAmphibians 610 $aAquatic organisms 610 $aBacteria 610 $aBioassessment 610 $aBirds 610 $aCorse 610 $aEnvironmental alterations 610 $aFishes 610 $aFungi 610 $aHydrology 610 $aInvertebrates 610 $aLeaf litter decomposition 610 $aMammals 610 $aPlants 610 $aPrimary production 610 $aReptiles 610 $aRivers 610 $aSecondary production 610 $aSediments 700 $aVerónica Ferreira$4auth$01324780 702 $aMaria João Feio$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404224103321 996 $aRios de Portugal: Comunidades, Processos e Alterações$93036289 997 $aUNINA
