The topic of biomonitoring or bioassessment and testing is a vital and rapidly growing field. In "Freshwater Biomonitoring and Benthic Macroinvertebrates", a number of international experts review recent advances in the field. The book includes reference material on the history of biomonitoring with invertebrates and surveys the literature available on the subject. It also contains work of a more practical nature. The design, implementation, analysis and interpretation of benthic surveys are discussed in detail, as are toxicity testing and field experiments. This book should be of interest to professional entomologists, invertebrate zoologists, and aquatic zoologists, as well as those working in the fields of environmental biotechnology, environmental quality, or marine habitats.
