Comparative Reservoir Limnology and Water Quality Management edited by M. Straskraba, J.G. Tundisi, A. Duncan.

The volume starts with comparative reservoir limnology and deals with problems relating to tropical, semi-arid and temperate reservoirs. The second part concerns mathematical models of reservoirs, including new techniques for investigating their limnology. These cover physical, chemical and biologic...
