BOOK

Conservation and Productivity of Natural Waters

---

This work examines the balance between conservation and biological productivity in natural freshwater ecosystems such as lakes, rivers, and reservoirs. Edwards and Garrod explore the ecological processes that control productivity, including nutrient dynamics, energy flow, and biological interactions within aquatic environments.
The book discusses how human influences—such as pollution, eutrophication, and land-use changes—affect water quality and ecosystem function. It also highlights strategies for managing natural waters to sustain both their ecological integrity and their productivity for human use.
As an early contribution to environmental science (published in 1972), the text is considered foundational in the study of sustainable water resource management and aquatic ecosystem conservation.
