Download or read book Management and Ecology of Freshwater Plants written by Joseph Caffrey and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing need for appropriate management of aquatic plants in rivers and canals, lakes and reservoirs, and drainage channels and urban waterways. This management must be based on a sound knowledge of the ecology of freshwater plants, their distribution and the different forms of control available including chemical, physical, biological and biomanipulation. This series of papers from over 20 different countries was generated from the highly successful European Weed Research Society symposia on aquatic plant management, this being the ninth. The contributions provide a valuable insight into the complexities involved in managing aquatic systems, discuss state-of-the-art control techniques such as biomanipulation using fish and waterfowl and the use of straw, and deal with patterns of regrowth and recovery post-management. Careful consideration is given to the use of chemicals, a practice which has come under scrutiny in recent years. Underpinning the development of such control techniques is a growing body of knowledge relating to the biology and ecology of water plants, including growth responses under different trophic conditions, the impact of pollution, and aspects of photosynthesis. The authorship of the papers represents the collective wisdom of leading scientists and experts from fisheries agencies, river authorities, nature conservation agencies, the agrochemical industry and both governmental and non-governmental organisations.

Book excerpt: "Over 6km in length and 266ha in area, the Canning River Regional Park varies from Eucalypt woodland bordering a billabong and a stretch of fresh-water river at one end to shallow reed and paperbark fringed tidal stretches at the other. From one end of the year to the there there are also subtle changes in the landscape, plants and birds, as well as on-going work within the park to maintain both natural and developed areas and to address current problems. If you have ever wondered why the riverine habitat varies so much, whether plants are local or introduced, when the kingfishers arrive or how the area was used in the early days, this book will help to broaden your knowledge. On one level, it is a celebration of the seasonal details of a unique natural environment, which is listed on the Register of the National Estate. Despite the proximity of the park to the hustle and bustle of suburbia, there is still much to be discovered by any patient observer who chooses to spend time wandering along the walk trials within the regional park." - back cover.
