This outstanding volume enables researchers to develop robust sensors and instruments for automatic ‘on site’ measurement of water quality. The need for an efficient multi-parameter monitoring system is ever-increasing, given that human activity is impacting so greatly on ecosystems and the increased need to develop our understanding of the underlying environmental processes.<br /> <br /> Edited by two renowned experts, this book evaluates developments over the last 10-20 years which will form the basis of future sophisticated in situ monitoring systems. The emphasis is on micro-analytical monitoring techniques and microtechnology.<br /> <br /> * Critically discusses the state of the art of existing techniques and devices<br /> * Overviews what can be expected in terms of performance<br /> * Outlines possible improvements in the future<br /> This book will be invaluable to both researchers interested in the development of environmental monitoring systems and laboratories in charge of water quality assessment by providing them with a critical evaluation of existing and possible future options.
