Durch seinen interdisziplinären Ansatz (die Autoren sind Biologen, Hydrologen und Atmosphärenforscher) kann dieses Buch verschiedenartige Beschreibungsmethoden der Hydrologie, Biogeochemie und Ökosystemdynamik komplexer Landschaften auswerten und beurteilen. So gibt es wertvolle Hilfestellungen beim Verständnis regionaler hydrologischer Kreisläufe in vom Menschen beeinflußten Landschaften, wie sie für Mitteleuropa typisch sind. (12/98)
