Sobre IBD

This volume examines the work of the National Estuary Program, the prominent federally-funded initiative that addresses pollution and other anthropogenic impacts on estuarine ecosystems. Estuary Restoration and Maintenance sets into clear perspective the state of America’s estuarine waters, the effects of human development in watersheds, and the impacts of pollution and anthropogenic activities on living resources and habitats in these critically important coastal systems. The text covers the gamut of issues, from the technical assessment of problems to management action plans for the improvement of the environmental quality of estuaries.
