Reviews
'This book is a must for all bodies dealing with estuaries and coasts for researchers and practitioners, telling them how to take and analyse samples, and for statutory bodies and industries needing to know how to interpret the data or define what work needs to be done. It should be required reading by all marine laboratories, consultancies and organisations.' Mike Elliott, The Marine Biologist
