Today the ecological health of Linthipe catchment in
Lake Malawi Basin long the base of vast natural
resources is at risk from anthropogenic activities
leading to biogeochemical changes. Never before has
knowledge of the biogeochemical processes of the
catchment been so critical to its management, and
yet until now research on this vital area has been
fragmented. This book offers a comprehensive
examination of the Linthipe River as a tropical
catchment model system. Featuring investigations of
nutrients, sediments, stable carbon & nitrogen
isotopes following state of art analytical methods &
catchment modelling. Organized around a framework
that integrates geology, hydrology and human
activities, the book demonstrates how the tropical
catchment systems work, but also establishes a basis
for how they compare with other, better-studied
temperate catchments. In addition, the book features
a fascinating & timely examination of the effects of
human activities on biogeochemical processes at
catchment scale. Biogeochemistry of mid-sized
tropical river, Linthipe, will be welcomed by
academicians & stakeholders in natural resources
management.
