Rivers of South America examines the physical, chemical, and biological environment of South American Rivers, and the people living in their basins. The book explores the main river basins, with information on each river's history, physiography, clime, hydrology, biodiversity, ecological processes, environmental problems, management, and conservation. The book identifies conservation hotspots for riverine environments, and is enriched with a large number of maps, photos, graphs, and tables. This reference is important for aquatic ecologists, environmental authorities, local and national governments, academics, NGOs, and those interested in the preservation and management of flowing waters.

Excerpt from The Flowing Road Adventuring on the Great, Rivers of South America The chapters in this volume are from the experience of five separate overland and river expeditions into South America, beginning in 1902. Largely these were by canoe, and chiefly on streams more or less connecting - hence the significance of the title - Flowing Road. They embraced a continuous journey from Santa Isabel, on the Rio Negro, in Brazil, to Ciudad Bolivar, on the Orinoco, in Venezuela; from San Fernando, on the Apure, to the head waters and return, of the Orinoco, via the Atabapo and the Casiquiare; down the Portuguesa, in Venezuela, the Apure and the Orinoco to its mouth; and on the Parana, the Salado and Feliciano rivers in Argentine. The saddle trips included crossing the llanos, which stretch between the Venezuelan north coast mountain range and the Orinoco on the south, and the llanos and the forest to the east of Lake Maracaibo; skirting the Cordilleras at the east of Colombia; across the Andes into Chile; and some penetration of the pampas of Argentine and the forests of Brazil. Incidental to getting to and from the frontier I sojourned for brief periods at a majority of the leading cities on the continent. In the far southeastern corner of Venezuela roam a native people whom common report of the country declares to be savage arid unknown.

The Physical Geography of South America, the eighth volume in the Oxford Regional Environments series, presents an enduring statement on the physical and biogeographic conditions of this remarkable continent and their relationships to human activity. It fills a void in recent environmental literature by assembling a team of specialists from within and beyond South America in order to provide an integrated, cross-disciplinary body of knowledge about this mostly tropical continent, together with its high mountains and temperate southern cone. The authors systematically cover the main components of the South American environment - tectonism, climate, glaciation, natural landscape changes, rivers, vegetation, animals, and soils. The book then presents more specific treatments of regions with special attributes from the tropical forests of the Amazon basin to the Atacama Desert and Patagonian steppe, and from the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Pacific coasts to the high Andes. Additionally, the continents environments are given a human face by evaluating the roles played by people over time, from pre-European and European colonial impacts to the effects of modern agriculture and urbanization, and from interactions with El Ni?o events to prognoses for the future environments of the continent.
