This first volume of a two-volume series presents methods to assess the physical and biological structure of streams and includes full sections on Physical Processes, Stream Biota, and Community Interactions in 22 detailed chapters. Each chapter,contains basic methods suitable for teaching undergraduate or graduate students, along with advanced methods appropriate for research-level studies. Suitable as a textbook for courses in stream or river ecology, this book is also an important reference for professional aquatic ecologists, natural resource managers, and user groups seeking to evaluate the condition of streams of their watersheds"<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Methods in Stream Ecology </i>provides a complete series of field and laboratory protocols in stream ecology that are ideal for teaching or conducting research. This two part new edition is updated to reflect recent advances in the technology associated with ecological assessment of streams, including remote sensing. Volume focusses on ecosystem structure with in-depth sections on Physical Processes, Material Storage and Transport and Stream Biota. With a student-friendly price, this <i>Third Edition</i> is key for all students and researchers in stream and freshwater ecology, freshwater biology, marine ecology, and river ecology.

The new edition has expanded content, a larger format, and much better graphics...The greatest content change is the addition of a 6th section entitled Ecosystem Quality. Section 6 is anchored by a substantially rewritten chapter on 'Macroinvertebrates as Biotic Indicators of Environmental Quality'...I like the way in which doable, detailed, stepwise exercises, including the math, are provided in a format appealing to students interested in conducting stream studies...I think that even an advanced high school student with access to this book should be able design an independent study project in stream ecology. I would really like to see it in high school libraries, as well as on college and university campuses. The greatest strength of this book is that it is written by leading authorities in stream ecology. The structure is better organized and more informative than the previous edition. The format is conducive to teaching and learning. I grade this book an 'A'. <b>--Ben Stout, Wheeling Jesuit University, West Virginia, USA</b><br>
