Wetland Monitoring: Trophodynamics Metals and Modeling

Wetlands occur all over the world in all climatic zones exhibit enormous diversity according to their genesis geographical location water regime and chemistry dominant plants and sediment characters providing food fiber and raw materials storm and flood control clean water supply scenic beauty and educational and recreational benefits. Besides biotic-abiotic components and human inhabitants the subsistence of these unique natural resources is under intimidation due to developmental activities population pressure and anthropogenic stress which needs long term planning for preservation and conservation of these resources. The present book focuses on abiotic components (hydrochemistry and geochemistry) biotic components (phytoplankton zooplankton and aquatic macrophytes) biochemical profiling degree of eutrophication delineation of trophodynamics metal accumulation concentration transport and mobility and environmental modeling of significant wetlands of Central Gujarat India. This book would certainly be useful and handy tool for students’ community academicians researchers scientists practitioners and managers at regional national and global level.
