Waterplanten en waterkwaliteit. 2025. illus. (col.). 384 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.- In Dutch.

Ensuring good water quality requires in-depth knowledge of the processes that control this quality and how aquatic plants respond to this.
Aquatic Plants and Water Quality provides a thorough and up-to-date overview of the knowledge on this subject. This knowledge has been successfully applied many times in the past decades in the ecological restoration of waters.

The book discusses the following aspects:

The basic principles of biogeochemical and physical-chemical processes that are important for water systems.

The importance of various controlling factors for aquatic plants, such as inorganic carbon, nutrients and salinity.

A description of stressors that influence water quality. This includes eutrophication, acidification, salinization and climate change.

The landscape perspective: how does the landscape function naturally and in what way is it affected by human actions? Insight into this is essential for choosing the right restoration measures
