Hansen and van Afferden (both of the Mexican Institute of Water Technology) present a summary of the systematic studies, coordinated by the Institute, of the past ten years of the Mexican watershed comprised by the Lerma river and Lake Chapala in the central part of Mexico. The collected information presents a broad-view of the ecological, economic, resources management, and other disciplinary aspects of the Lerma-Chapala basin. Chapters cover the hydrology of the basin; geology, sediments, and soils; toxic substances; human health implications of heavy metals in Lake Chapala; the limnology of the lake; hydro-meteorology; nutrients and eutrophication in the lake; fish fauna; social awareness regarding the lake and its environment; competition for water in the basin; and institutional arrangements for water management.
