Covering the key aspects of fluvial limnology and ecology related to the river, this book is arranged in the following four sections:The Physical and Chemical Environment; Plant Life; Invertebrate Animal Life; Vertebrate Animal Life.This in-depth and up-to-date review encapsulates 40 years of detailed study by researchers at the Instituto Nacional de Limnología (INALI, CONICET-UNL, Argentina), an internationally renowned institution almost exclusively devoted to the exploration of the Middle Paraná, the most important 600-km-long reach of the river. It is a fascinating read for both specialists and general naturalists alike.
