Synopsis
Why study a small lake in the White Mountains of north-central New Hamp- shire? Better yet, why write a book about those studies? We wrestled with such questions for years, and the answers lie in the overall ecosystem focus and approach we have taken. At the same time that we studied Mirror Lake, numerous and comprehensive studies were done of the surrounding terres- trial and stream ecosystems of the Hubbard Brook Valley. These associated studies complemented those done in the lake and provided unique informa- tion about air-land-water linkages in the Valley. Many of the studies con- ducted in Mirror Lake were about organisms or about the processes carried out by these individual organisms or communities. Nevertheless, an abiding objective always was to determine the significance that these individuals and individual processes had to the overall structure, metabolism and biogeo- chemistry of the Mirror Lake ecosystem. To wit, what is the significance for the ecosystem? In some cases the ecosystem role was clear, for many it was not. But the hope is that our attempts to unravel and understand the whole will be informative and, more importantly, that it will stimulate others to study the holistic and functional relationships in entire landscapes. The book is more than a case history of a single lake. We have written it not only for the serious student of lakes, but also for those interested in ecosystems and their interactions.

Etat : Very Good. xiv, 516, 197 text figs. . HB. Vg. From the library of Prof. Jim Green (1928-2016), Professor of Zoology at Queen Mary College, University of London, with his name to endpaper. A detailed ecological study of Mirror Lake, Carroll County, New Hampshire, edited by the influential American ecologist Gene E. Likens. Drawing on research associated with the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study, the work examines the lake together with its surrounding watershed as an integrated ecological system, covering hydrology, water chemistry, nutrient cycling, biological communities, productivity and the movement of materials between terrestrial and aquatic environments. An important contribution to modern limnology and ecosystem ecology, illustrating the development of whole-ecosystem and watershed approaches to the study of freshwater environments. [9780387961064].
