| Summary |
"Restoration of Aquatic Systems makes a clear delineation between genuine restoration and public perception of restoration efforts. Written by Robert Livingston, one of the foremost international authorities on aquatic ecosystems, this work is the final volume of a trilogy derived from 70 field-years of data garnered from ten different coastal systems on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. The text provides a synthetic look at restoration efforts, emphasizing the functional basis that supports such activities, followed by a review of the evidence of recovery."--BOOK JACKET |
