Auteur : Richardson Curtis
About the Author: Curtis J. Richardson is a professor of Resource Ecology at the Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences, Duke University, and Director of the Duke University Wetland Center in Durham, NC.
Background information about current and historical ecological conditions of the region set the context for reports of long-term research projects.
A series of gradient studies determining the effects of hydrology and nutrient changes are presented, followed by field experiments that have tested those findings.
Subsequent sections present models for predicting responses to various conditions and analyze the studies and models, focusing on management and restoration of the Everglades.
This book will interest professionals and graduate students interested in ecosystems and wetland ecology.
