Title: | What is river health? | Contributor(s): | Norris, Richard H (author); Thoms, Martin C (author) | Publication Date: | 1999-03 | DOI: | 10.1046/j.1365-2427.1999.00425.x | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/53233 | Abstract: | 1. Traditionally the assessment of river water quality has been based solely on the measurement of physical, chemical and some biological characteristics. While these measurements may be efficient for regulating effluent discharges and protecting humans, they are not very useful for large-scale management of catchments or for assessing whether river ecosystems are being protected. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Freshwater Biology, 41(2), p. 197-209 | Publisher: | Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 1365-2427 0046-5070 |
