Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems

An international journal on freshwater ecosystem

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems (KMAE-Bulletin Français de la Pêche et de la Pisciculture since 1928) serves as a foundation for scientific advice across the broad spectrum of management and conservation issues related to freshwater ecosystems. [See Aims and scope]

We are happy to announce that KMAE has updated its Aims & Scope and welcomes now a new Editorial Board.
