Ecology of Tidal Freshwater Forested Wetlands of the Southeastern United States

From the reviews: "Tidal freshwater wetlands, upstream from saline coastal estuaries, present remarkable habitats now threatened by a variety of factors including climate change and sea level rise. The editors, along with 50 contributors ... here present recent, much-needed studies of these endangered areas. ... The volume offers good reviews of the current use and conservation of these forested wetlands, with ample suggestions about future research needs. ... This handbook is well referenced and illustrated throughout. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-level undergraduate through professionals/practitioners." (C. Leck, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (5), January, 2008) "The editors of this book have successfully brought together ecologists actively engaged in research on these systems ... and widely dispersed grey literature to provide a comprehensive review of research findings. ... For those interested in coastal wetlands, or systems that are driven by strong hydrological fluctuations, this book will be a valuable resource." (Siobhan Fennessy, Ecology, Vol. 89 (10), 2008)
