Description
Based on the bestselling book, Rivers of North America, this new guide stands as the only primary source of complete and comparative baseline
data on the biological and hydrological characteristics of more than 180 of the highest profile rivers in Europe. With numerous full-color
photographs and maps, this book includes conservation information on current patterns of river use and the extent to which human society
has exploited and impacted them. Rivers of Europe provides the information ecologists and conservation managers need to better assess
their management and meet the EU legislative good governance targets.
