Books by Michael J. Kennish

This book examines the pollution impacts on estuarine and coastal marine biotic communities. It provides case histories of well-known, heavily contaminated systems. The book is helpful for marine scientists and administrators engaged in the research and management of marine environments.

This extensive handbook covers developments in estuarine and marine pollution. A truly international collection of data is presented, in an organized framework, on a wide range of subject areas including eutrophication, organic loading, oil pollution, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, trace metals, radioactive waste, dredging and dredged-spoil disposal, and effects of electric generating stations. It includes more than 400 tables and figures, providing quick access to information. The combination of discussions and illustrations with a tabular format make it easy to use and understand.

This volume examines the work of the National Estuary Program, the prominent federally-funded initiative that addresses pollution and other anthropogenic impacts on estuarine ecosystems. Estuary Restoration and Maintenance sets into clear perspective the state of America's estuarine waters, the effects of human development in watersheds, and the impacts of pollution and anthropogenic activities on living resources and habitats in these critically important coastal systems. The text covers the gamut of issues, from the technical assessment of problems to management action plans for the improvement of the environmental quality of estuaries.

Designed to meet the research, monitoring and assessment needs of scientists, planners, managers and administrators, this reference covers pollution in coastal and estuarine waters. It includes general concepts, case histories, and more.

Examines the work of the National Estuary Program, the federally-funded initiative that addresses pollution and other anthropogenic impacts on estuarine ecosystems. This book focuses on the technical and management issues involved in National Estuary Program sites across the US-Long Island Sound, Delaware Bay, Galveston Bay, and San Francisco Bay.
