Before College Math, Roxane Elena Ronca

A Collection of Open Access Books and Monographs

The review usually goes like this: here are the “rules”, here are some examples of using those “rules” and here are 10 to 100 exercises where you will practice using those “rules” and then you’ll be tested on them.

Freshwater Algae In Northwest Washington, Volume I, Cyanobacteria, Robin A. Matthews Mar 2016

Freshwater Algae In Northwest Washington, Volume I, Cyanobacteria, Robin A. Matthews

A Collection of Open Access Books and Monographs

The idea for this guide, Freshwater Algae in Northwest Washington, began in 2006 when the Institute for Watershed Studies (www.wwu.edu/iws) expanded its Northwest Lakes monitoring project to collect water quality samples from more than 70 local lakes. This volume, Cyanobacteria, is part of a series describing freshwater algae in Northwest Washington, and includes simple algal keys that can be used by students with little experience in taxonomy, as well as members of the general public. Although the emphasize is on freshwater lakes, samples collected in streams, seeps, waterfalls, and other lotic systems are included, with comments on whether …
