description: The introduction of pollutants can have disastrous consequences for the delicate and complex ecosystems that are supported in freshwater rivers and streams. Dr Haslam, a distinguished plant scientist, presents a systematic and thorough analysis of the biological impact of pollution throughout the system, and discusses the methods of measuring and monitoring pollution damage. The focus is on plant communities in temperate watercourses but evidence from other biota is introduced as necessary.
