This classroom resource provides clear, concise scientific information in an understandable and enjoyable way about water and aquatic life. Spanning the hydrologic cycle from rain to watersheds, aquifers to springs, rivers to estuaries, ample illustrations promote understanding of important concepts and clarify major ideas. Aquatic science is covered comprehensively, with relevant principles of chemistry, physics, geology, geography, ecology, and biology included throughout the text. Emphasizing water sustainability and conservation, the book tells us what we can do personally to conserve for the future and presents job and volunteer opportunities in the hope that some students will pursue careers in aquatic science. Texas Aquatic Science, originally developed as part of a multi-faceted education project for middle and high school students, can also be used at the college level for non-science majors, in the home-school environment, and by anyone who educates kids about nature and water.

"This is a very readable book in which the ecological concepts are carefully explained and the glossary of key terms will be a welcome inclusion for those getting to grips with ecology. The book will therefore appeal to a wide readership of aquatic ecologists and foresters, both professional and amateur alike". Scottish Forestry Royal Scottish Forestry Society"...the book makes a very significant contribution to our growing awareness of the ecological importance of driftwood. This contribution is founded on two particular aspects of the book: the writing style, which is clear and directed very much at the general reader; and the scope of the book, which is very broad and, to my knowledge, goes far beyond other reviews of the topic". Angela Gurnell School of Geography, University of Birmingham British Journal of Forestry"This is not a review article containing a current review of all works on wood in aquatic ecosystems. Instead, it is a comprehensive treatment of the general role of wood". J.L. Tank and J.R. Webster Journal of the North American Benthological SocietyFrom the Forest to the Sea: The Ecology of Wood in Streams, Rivers, Estuaries and Oceans is a fascinating scientific work that discusses the role wood plays in very complex and diverse aquatic ecosystems. Until now almost nothing has been published on this little understood topic.-- European settlement and laissez-faire capitalism-- Streams-- The Sea-- The Sea and estuaries-- Rivers
