The Kejimkujik Watershed Study (KWS) was initiated in 1978 in response to growing concerns about the possible harmful effects on the environment of long range transport of air pollutants, particularly acid rain. It is one of five calibrated watershed studies in Canada that represent a range of climatic conditions, terrain sensitivities, and rates of atmospheric acidic deposition. This report presents the proceedings of a workshop on the study, covering programs and concepts in integrated monitoring and research; monitoring global change; research and monitoring in and around Kejimkujik National Park; monitoring and research of surface waters, lakes and streams, and forests and watersheds; and the organization and interpretation of Kejimkujik research station establishment. Summary reports are given on watershed studies in the Experimental Ponds Area of Newfoundland, the Integrated Forest Studies Cooperative in Vermont, and the Humic Lake acidification experiment in Norway. Highlights of an open discussion on future activities are also included.
Long-term population monitoring is an important tool in our investigations of the role waterbirds play in their environment. This book is international in scope and presents information on species as diverse as the Common Loon, Harlequin Duck, and Semi-Palmated Sandpiper, and habitat in locations ranging from Iceland to Japan. Papers presented in this volume further our understanding of the important role that limnology plays in determining habitat suitability for waterbirds.
Describes the federal marine science and fisheries research programs that are carried out at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography, the Halifax Fisheries Research Laboratory, and the St. Andrews Biological Station.
This set of papers presents a description of the synthesis of hydrological problems and various environmental implications and management strategies for different highland and headwater regions of the world. Regions covered include the Himalayas, Russian mountains, Amazonia, and upland Wales.
