Description:

This site-synthesis volume presents 20 years of work at the North Temperate Lakes Long-Term Research Site. It provides the definitive information base for the ecology of temperate lakes, and a general assessment of the role of lakes within their landscapes. The Wisconsin temperate lakes LTER site has had a major role in the growth of our modern limnological understanding, and this book also chronicles the history of this work. The book should be of interest to most American limnologists and a significant number of general ecologists.
