New publication by Eawag

The Swiss Blue Community Eawag, the Aquatic Research Institute, is announcing a new publication: «Biodiversity between Water and Land. Excursions to bodies of water, moors and floodplains in Switzerland», by Florian Altermatt, Sabine Güsewell, Rolf Holderegger.

From the announcement:

Aquatic and terrestrial habitats are closely linked. Numerous plant and animal species utilise both habitats during their lives; there is a lively exchange of substances and organisms between “water” and “land”. The interplay between aquatic and terrestrial habitats also characterises human use and design of the landscape. This book invites you to actively explore the functioning of these habitats and their biodiversity on eight excursions.

The book “Biodiversity between water and land” can be ordered from Hauptverlag (German only).
