"Entertaining, informative, well-structured, and well-illustrated book..."--Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin"I highly recommend this book to all those who are interested in long-term researches on lakes, and are confronted with lake-management issues..." --SIL News"The book is not only an excellent summary of the innovative landscape-scale work done at North Temperate Lakes (NTL), one of the six original LTER sites, but it also provides an engaging history of the site's operations and evolving research goals. ... Exceptionally well written."--Ecology"This book provides an excellent overview and introduction to the literature of this very successful research program. This book should be in all academic libraries in Wisconsin and other parts of the lake-rich northland, and will also be useful to aquatic ecologists worldwide."--Choice"Entertaining, informative, well-structured, and well-illustrated book..."--Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin"I highly recommend this book to all those who are interested in long-term researches on lakes, and are confronted with lake-management issues..." --SIL News"The book is not only an excellent summary of the innovative landscape-scale work done at North Temperate Lakes (NTL), one of the six original LTER sites, but it also provides an engaging history of the site's operations and evolving research goals. ...
