The aim of the fifth international conference of the Israel Society for Ecology and Environmental Quality was to bring together ecologists, environmentalists and environmental engineers from around the world to consider the state of the environment from a multidiscipinary perspective. These proceedings are comprised of 68 selected peer-reviewed papers from the conference on the topics of water and wastewater treatment, groundwater contamination, air pollution, environmental health, aquatic ecosystems and terrestial and general ecology. The organisers' hope that ecologists and engineers would benefit from seeing the issues from each other's perspective is furthered by this wide-ranging survey covering treatment processes and receiving waters, the impacts of and treatment technologies for the broad spectrum of pollutants - microbiological, chemical (organic and inorganic) industrial and municipal. It will interest scientists, engineers and all those with an interest in the quality of the aquatic environment.
