The Water Quality Field Guide is a combination 'how-to' and 'why?' reference.  It covers how to plan for and successfully measure water quality in the field, and it explains why these measurements are important and what they mean.

Prepare for success in the field.  Good water-quality studies need to overcome several challenges:  Knowing what to measure, knowing how to measure, and knowing what the measurements mean.  The Water Quality Field Guide not only prepares you for taking the measurements but also for their interpretation.
