Describing the basic methods used to study streams and their plants and animals, this text gives instructions for sampling and studying the physical, chemical and biological features of streams and rivers.
Methods in Stream Ecology provides a complete series of field and laboratory protocols in stream ecology that are ideal for teaching or conducting research. This unique book covers five important areas of stream ecology: physical stream ecology, material storage and transport, stream biota, community interactions, and ecosystem processes. Each chapter is specifically designed to be both cutting-edge and comprehensive to anyone beginning a study of stream ecology. Useful as a textbook for a course in stream ecology, this book is also a critical reference for those who are not trained as stream ecologists, but are required to evaluate the status of streams. Methods in Stream Ecology is far-reaching in scope and essential for anyone interested in stream ecology.

Section A Physical processes: landscapes and catchment basins, J.A. Stanford; valley segments, stream reaches and channel units, P.A. Bissen and D.R. Montgomery; discharge measurements and streamflow analysis, J.A. Gore; dynamics of flow, R.W. Newbury; temperature, light and oxygen, F.R. Hauer and W.R. Hill; hyporheic zones, C.N. Dahm and H.M.
