"The book includes major aspects of Zooplankton ecology, including key processes and methodologies. For each functional group, processes and environmental drivers are explored allowing inferences to be drawn on the distribution patterns, impact of environmental alterations. This is followed by details on description - understanding - integration - prediction/inference. In the methodological section, advanced techniques are described, to ensure appropriate practical skills for subsequent application of this new quantitative techniques"-- Provided by publisher.
