Wetlands 4th Edition by William J. Mitsch and James G. Gosselink maintains the authoritative quality of its predecessors while providing such revisions. This book has been the premier reference on wetlands for ecologists, land use planners, and water resource managers worldwide-a complete compendium of the state of data in wetland science, management, and restoration.
Authors deliver their basic book updated with substantial new data and a streamlined text supplemented with a support web site. This book presents refocused coverage on the three important parts of the book: introduction to the extent, definitions, and basic features of wetlands of the world; Wetland science; and Wetland management. There is new chapter on climate change and wetlands that introduces the student to the roles that wetlands have in climate change and impact that climate change has on wetlands.
There may be elevated international coverage, together with wetlands of Mexico and Central America, the Congolian Swamp and Sine Saloum Delta of Africa, the Western Siberian Lowlands, the Mesopotamian Marshland restoration in Iraq, and the wetland parks of Asia akin to Xixi Nationwide Wetland Park in China and Gandau Nature Park in Taipei, Taiwan. This expanded coverage is illustrated with over 50 wetland photographs from across the world.
Several hundred new references for further studying, up-to-date data, and the latest analysis findings are presented. Over 35 new data containers and sidebars present essential background data to concepts being introduced and case research of wetland restoration and treatment in practice. This book manages to set new standards in presentation and content to confirm its place as the first point of reference for those working or studying wetlands.
