Based upon a four decade longitudinal study of river-estuarine systems in the northeast Gulf of Mexico, this book provides a detailed comparative analysis of the long-term data with specific references to similarities and differences in system response to nutrient loading and long-term climatological cycles. It includes noted changes in the clim

Derived from research spanning over 31 years in a series of studies of seven major river-estuaries, this presents a comprehensive review of the nature of the eutrophication process and how short- and long-term nutrient loading affects marine systems. It is the culmination of advanced research on how coastal systems work.

Explores an alternative approach to coastal research that has been applied to coastal resource management issues. Based upon a sequence of long-term, interdisciplinary studies of a series of coastal regions in the NE Gulf of Mexico, this book advances the readers' understanding of how coastal food webs work.
