Ecology of European Rivers

---

Ecology of European Rivers is a comprehensive, scholarly volume examining the biological, chemical, and physical processes that shape river ecosystems across Europe. Edited by B. A. Whitton, the book brings together contributions from leading European ecologists and hydrobiologists.
The text systematically explores river structure and function, primary production, algal and macrophyte communities, invertebrates, fish ecology, nutrient cycling, and anthropogenic impacts such as pollution, regulation, and land-use change. Comparative case studies from diverse European river systems are used to highlight regional differences and common ecological principles.
The book includes extensive bibliographies and indexes, making it a foundational reference for researchers, environmental scientists, limnologists, and water-resource managers involved in freshwater ecology and river conservation.
