Inland salt lakes: An introduction

  • Conference paper
Salt Lakes

Part of the book series: Developments in Hydrobiology ((DIHY,volume 5))

Abstract

Proceedings of specialised scientific symposia are rarely comprehensive. Their usual aim is to provide a record, accessible to a wider audience, of papers read by participants who came together mainly to exchange views, report on their own work, and learn about the work of others. The extent to which presented papers cover the field is determined by the width of the field, participant numbers and, of course, the contents of the papers.
