"Product of a Symposium on the Classification and Inventory of Great Lakes Aquatic Habitats"--Dedication.
In the context of freshwater fisheries changing their strategies from the regulation of harvest and the enhancement of populations, to the creation and protection of habitats and the management of ecosystems, moves toward establishing an aquatic habitat classification system. Eight papers, from the February 1988 Symposium on the Classification and Inventory of Great Lakes Aquatic Habitats (the last in a series of Great Lakes Symposia), propose various classification approaches, most using a limited number of physical, chemical, and/or biological variables to produce some form of index. They also include overviews and summaries of the classification process.
A systems-based approach to physical geography written in an easy-to-understand narrative style that is closely integrated with clear, single-concept illustrations.
Results of a 5-year study of the bird populations at Storkersen Point on the Alaska Coastal plain. Based on the characteristics of the birds and their wetland resources, recommendations for the preservation of tundra wetlands are made and to minimize negative effects of petroleum development on water birds.
This book applies system theory to analyze the operation and structure of the complex earth surface system, including the interactions between society and nature that cause environmental degradation and threats to human populations. The possible ways to harmonize the operation of a global society as a complex system using the United Nation sustainable development goals are investigated, as well as the major efforts currently implemented to achieve this objective and why many are unsuccessful. Readers will learn this material through case studies that assess the essential conditions required to occupy a planet sustainably, and examine the complex interactions between society and nature in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and outer layers of the lithosphere. The book is written for undergraduate students in geography, earth sciences, environmental sciences, and ecology, and will also appeal to environmental agency employees, nature protection representatives, teachers, and researchers.
This environmental impact statement describes the potential beneficial and adverse impacts of the proposed continued development of the Columbia Basin Project. Two alternatives for continued development have been analyzed and are discussed in this document: (1) complete the Columbia Basin Project as originally envisioned, by providing irrigation service to an additional 538,600 acres; and (2) expand the Columbia Basin Project on a more limited scale by providing irrigation service to approximately 87,000 acres along the east bank of the East Low Canal. A No Action alternative has also been included as part of this environmental analysis.
