    This accessible and engaging text explores the relationship between philosophy, science and physical geography. It addresses an imbalance that exists in opinion, teaching and to a lesser extent research, between a philosophically enriched human geography and a philosophically ignorant physical geography.Science, Philosophy and Physical Geography challenges the myth that there is a single self-evident scientific method that can and is applied by physical geographers. The book explores the various philosophies that have been developed to study and explain the key questions that are asked by physical geographers in their research. The purpose here is raise awareness of problems and issues that appear a natural and normal part of working processes.... more...

The book provides coverage of: ? Abiotic processes and harmful substances in lakes ? Biocoenosis in evaluating the ecological status of lakes ? New lake monitoring techniques ? Quality assessment ? Managing of results The... more...

  • Lakes and Wetlandsby Britannica Educational Publishing; John P. Rafferty

    Britannica Educational Publishing 2011; US$ 51.70

    Lakes and wetlands are significant ecosystems that nourish, sustain, and house many of the planet’s plant and animal species. Though both of these regions are defined by water—both fresh and saline—each lake and particular type of wetland also has characteristics all its own. This detailed volume considers the formation, composition, and maintenance of these intricate ecological units and the various life forms they support. Dramatic full-color photographs and in-depth profiles of Earth’s major lakes highlight the beauty and complexity of these regions. more...

  • Physics of Lakesby Kolumban Hutter; Yongqi Wang; Irina P. Chubarenko

    Springer 2011; US$ 179.00

    This first volume in the treatise on the Physics of Lakes deals with the formulation of the mathematical and physical background. A large number of lakes on Earth are described, presenting their morphology as well as the causes of their response to the driving environment. Because the physics of lakes cannot be described without the language used in mathematics, these subjects are introduced first by using the most simple approach and with utmost care, assuming only a limited college knowledge calculus and classical Newtonian physics, and continue with increasing complexity and elegance. Starting with the fundamental equations of Lake Hydrodynamics in the form of "primitive equations" and leading to a detailed treatment of angular... more...
