Cyanobacterial Harmful Algal Blooms: State of the Science and Research Needs (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Hudnell, H. Kenneth

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

With the ever-increasing incidence of harmful cyanobacterial algal blooms, this monograph has added urgency and will be essential reading for all sorts of researchers, from neuroscientists to cancer research specialists. The volume contains the proceedings of the 2005 International Symposium on Cyanobacterial Harmful Algal Blooms, and has been edited by H. Kenneth Hudnell, of the US Environmental Protection Agency. It contains much of the most recent research into the subject.
