Overview
Covers all aquatic ecosystems- from fresh to marine, from shallow to deep, from pristine to impacted, from purely academic to management and societal implications
Each chapter written by dual-career couples who have collaborated in the field
Chapters focus on the science with brief discussion of how they've worked with dual-careers

About this book
The papers herein represent wide-ranging topics, from the processes that structure microbial diversity to nitrogen and photosynthesis metabolism, to dynamics of changing ecosystems and processes and dynamics in individual ecosystems. In all, these papers take us from the Arctic to Africa, from the Arabian Sea to Australia, from small lakes in Maine and Yellowstone hot vents to the Sargasso Sea, and in the process provide analyses that make us think about the structure and function of all of these systems in the aquatic realm. This book is useful not only for the depth and breadth of knowledge conveyed in its chapters, but serves to guide dual career couples faced with the great challenges only they face. Great teams do make great science.
