Studies on Lake Vechten and Tjeukemeer, The Netherlands 25th anniversary of the Limnological Institute of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences / edited by Ramesh D. Gulati, S. Parma.

The Netherlands, like the other industrialized countries in the northern hemisphere, is faced with increas­ ing environmental pro blems. Being a country rich in water - at least in terms of surface area - and low-lying, problems related to water are as old as the nation itself. The problems in regar...
