Derived from a meeting, this book presents review articles and research findings charting the dynamic and rapidly evolving issues around environmental microbiology. Faced with the ‘demise’ of the microbial indicator, scientists debate methods to replace this robust tool with the ultimate aim being to assist the monitoring and modelling of environmental systems to protect human health, animal welfare and environmental quality. Broad in its coverage, this book will appeal to researchers, local government officials, health professionals and the water and food industries.
