Opis

Reviews our knowledge of the effects of urban, industrial and agricultural pollution on the biology of shallow coastal marine lagoons. This volume integrates several fields of research to provide the readers with an insight of the processes involved in lagoon eutrophication and dystrophy and their impact on the different biological communities.
