disciplines make The Wetlands Handbook the essential tool
for those seeking comprehensive understanding of the subject. A
departure from more traditional treatises, this text examines
freshwater wetland ecosystem science from the fundamentals to
issues of management and policy.
Introductory chapters address the scope and significance of
wetlands globally for communities, culture and biodiversity.
Subsequent sections deal with processes underpinning wetland
functioning, how wetlands work, their uses and values for humans
and nature, their sensitivity to external impacts, and how they may
be restored. The text is illustrated by numerous examples,
emphasising functional and holistic approaches to wetland
management, including case studies on the wise use and
rehabilitation of wetlands in farmed, urban, industrial and other
damaged environments, highlighting the long-term benefits of
multiple use. The Wetlands Handbook will provide an
invaluable reference for researchers, managers, policy-makers and
students of wetland sciences.
