The Boundless River
"A joy to read" Times Literary Supplement "[A] stirring and accessible history of the mighty Rhine" Irish Times "It's easy to be swept away by Deen's delightful prose" New Statesman "A beautiful book, by turns poetic, witty and full of learning " PATRICK McGUINNESS The Boundless River takes the reader into a unique world ‒ the twilight zone between fact and fiction, science and imagination ‒ and on a journey which moves effortlessly from a time in prehistory, long before the existence of a European continent, to the present day. Along the way Deen encounters paleontologists, geologists, museum curators, taxidermists, fishermen and skippers who work the boats, who still see the Rhine as a...
Marine Eutrophication in Perspective
Is ecological knowledge relevant for environmental policy and if so, to what extent and in what way? These are some of the basic questions addressed in this book. Triggered by a series of oxygen depletion events in German, Danish and Swedish coastal waters at the beginning of the 1980s, international policies to reduce inputs of nitrogen and phosphorus to the North Sea were agreed upon by the North Sea states. The book provides a critical analysis of the role, scientists and scientific information, as well as civil servants, have played in the formulation and implementation of these decisions.

Major Biological Processes in European Tidal Estuaries
Nineteen papers representing the results of a project funded by the Commission of the European Communities to study macrotidal estuaries from the Elbe to the Tagus in a comparative and coherent manner by way of a standardized methodology. The papers address topics in primary production, bacterial processes, zooplankton, hyperbenthos, meiobenthos, macrobenthos, and modeling. A major result of the comparison is that salinity gradients explain species succession within each estuary, yet similar succession series are found at different salinity levels in different estuaries. The volume is reprinted from Hydrobiologia, v.311, 1995. Includes graphs and maps. Lacks an index. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
