Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estuaries are dynamic coastal waterways where salt and fresh water mix. Where River Meets Sea describes the value and status of Australia's 974 estuaries and takes readers on a state-by-state tour describing the health, geography, science, management and ecological functions of these unique coastal waterways. It includes profiles of people and their relationships with estuaries. The book's many photographs, maps, case studies and diagrams will help Australians to better understand, appreciate and wisely use these natural areas. Chapters on natural history, coastal science and management give an understanding of our vast network of pristine and heavily modified estuaries – from isolated tide-dominated estuaries in Australia's tropical north to those shaped by waves in southern, temperate waters. Other chapters show how people use and value coastal catchments and waterways, the impacts of human development on natural ecosystems, and how estuaries can be better managed in future. Where River Meets Sea aims to provide Australians with a deeper appreciation of our coastal waterways that are both vital for our economy and precious to our quality of life. This is a re-issued version of the original work published by the CRC for Coastal Zone Estuary and Waterway Management in 2004,

Download or read book Coastal Fishes of South eastern Australia written by Rudie Herman Kuiter and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coastal Fishes of South-Eastern Australia is the first book to cover almost all the unknown fish species from the coastal waters of eastern Australia, ranging from northern New South Wales to western Victoria. It comprises 142 families and 855 species, all illustrated with at least one colour photograph, but including juvenile stages, different male-female forms, and colour variants of the same species where appropriate. The great majority of the species were photographed in their natural environment. The primary purpose of the book is to identify fishes living in the area covered, and it has been designed to accommodate fishermen, divers, students and scientists. The fishes are arranged scientifically from the highest class down to the species, based on the latest revisions. Scientific keys are provided down to the family level, and similar or closely related species are placed near each other. In addition, a pictorial key to the families is provided. Each level of classification has an introduction, and each species has a general description, mostly based on external features. The species description is followed by information on distribution in Australia and elsewhere, habitat, interesting behaviour, and size. Great importance has been placed on the use of common names, and on uniformity throughout the entire book.
