Loch Leven: 40 years of scientific research

Abstract

"Previously published in Hydrobiologia, Volume 681, 2012." "Understanding the links between pollution, climate change and ecological response"--Cover. "This volume is dedicated to the memory of Antony Edward Bailey-Watts (1942-2007)"--Page 1. This book examines 40 years of data from Loch Leven, a shallow lake in the lowlands of Scotland, UK. It examines the links between pollution, climate change and ecological response at the landscape scale.
