- Summary:
- Annotation ANALYTICAL METHODS AND PROCEDURES FOR ALL ASPECTS OF THE ENVIRONMENT - IN ONE HANDY REFERENCE! Here is the first book to bring together and fully explain the analytical methods and procedures used or every aspect of the environment - water, soil, and air. Designed to be the first point of reference for anyone wanting to monitor environmental variables, the "Handbook examines all the methods and problems associated with each monitoring method. Edited by an international team of four hands-on experts, "Environmental Monitoring Handbook covers all types of monitoring including: * Chemical * Biological * Hydrological * Ectotoxological * Microbiological * Physical You'll also find a thorough discussion of data analysis and experimental design as they pertain to environmental monitoring. If you're looking for a single definitive source of environmental monitoring information, your search ends here. Annotation.
