The story of the Santee is, in fact, the story of a major part of the Carolinas east of the Appalachians, for the river drains an immense area of both states from the mountains to the ocean.

The challenges that the world's running water systems now face have never been more numerous or acute; at the same time, these complex habitats remain absolutely crucial to human wellbeing and future survival.
Drawing on some recent developments in the blue humanities, this book addresses water as a material, political and cultural phenomenon across a variety of spatial and temporal contexts.

Transboundary water negotiations are complex as they are driven by diverse national interests, multiple legal and policy frameworks, historical, and asymmetric power relations.

This dissertation considers various questions with respect to the effects of salinity on nutrification: what are the main inhibiting factors causing the effects, do all salts have similar effects, what is the maximum acceptable salt level, are ammonia oxidisers or nitrite oxidizers most sensitive to salt stress, can nitrifiers adapt to long term salt stress and are some specific nitrifiers more resistant to salt stress than others?

Heavy metals are hazardous environmental pollutants and are becoming one of the most serious environmental problems because of their persistence, toxicity, non-biodegradability, and ability to be incorporated into the food chain.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the influence that the papyrus plant has had on African wetlands (with a particular focus on the Nile) in the past, and how this may change with the oncoming threats of climate change.
This book draws on interdisciplinary research deploying 'river rights' and 'water justice' as conceptual frameworks to engage with laws and politics around waterbodies.

In this work, several modelling approaches are explored to represent spatial pattern dynamics of aquatic populations in aquatic ecosystems by the combination of models, knowledge and data in different scales.

The Great Lakes Basin is under severe ecological threat from fracking, bursting pipelines, sulfide mining, abandonment of government environmental regulation, invasive species, warming and lowering of the lakes, etc.
WINNER OF THE JOHN AVERY AWARD AT THE ANDR SIMON AWARDS If we can save the salmon, we can save the world Over the centuries, salmon have been a vital resource, a dietary staple and an irresistible catch.
Examining the science of stream restoration, Rebecca Lave argues that the neoliberal emphasis on the privatization and commercialization of knowledge has fundamentally changed the way that science is funded, organized, and viewed in the United States.
The purpose of ICOLD Bulletin 169 is to assess the role of dams and reservoirs in adapting to the effects of global climate change, determine the threats, and potential opportunities, posed by global climate change to existing dams and reservoirs, and then recommend measures to mitigate against or adapt to the effects of global climate change.
