Abstract
This is the first lecture in the course Freshwater Hydrobiology. It is an introductory lecture which introduces a number of basic concepts that underpin the area. This is a PowerPoint lecture which is free to use and modify. It was designed to be used in conjunction with the course text Gray, N.F. (2017) Water Science and Technology: An Introduction, published by CRC Press, Oxford. In the lecture, the following are explored: definition of hydrobiology and limnology, hydrological cycle, freshwater habitats, retention time, classification of rivers, global warming, climate change, EU water legislation, biological quality, water service cycle, catchment management, River Basin Management Plans, Water Framework Directive, Irish River Basin Districts, Environmental quality standards, and priority substances.
