Zusammenfassung:The North American freshwater fish fauna is the most diverse and thoroughly researched temperate fish fauna in the world. Ecology of North American Freshwater Fishes is the only textbook to provide advanced undergraduate and graduate students and researchers with an up-to-date and integrated view of the ecological and evolutionary concepts, principles, and processes involved in the formation and maintenance of this fauna. Ecology of North American Freshwater Fishes provides readers with a broad understanding of why specific species and assemblages occur in particular places. Additionally, the text explores how individuals and species interact with each other and with their environments, how such interactions have been altered by anthropogenic impacts, and the relative success of efforts to restore damaged ecosystems. Designed for courses related to aquatic and fish ecology, fish biology, and ichthyology, and also for courses in advanced ecology and conservation, the book is divided into five sections for ease of use. Chapter outlines and summaries, annotated supplemental reading lists, online resources, extensive figuars, and color images are included to guide readers through the material and facilitate comprehension.
