Abstract
The physical remoteness of the site and its extreme unattractiveness, compounded by mud, ooze, rising water, and all too attentive clegs (small horseflies), only served to enhance the morale of the party. Under such conditions concentration on the job was the only way out. '

The objective of the book is the exploration of a diversity of conditions of fieldwork in non-European locations. The chapters of the book demonstrate that the conditions of a fieldwork differ considerably in terms of environmental circumstances, natural risks, dangerous creatures, character of the local communities and the way of life in the countries where the authors conducted their particular researches. The aim of the book is to give a vivid image of real conditions of fieldwork in selected places of our planet.

Fieldwork, including site inspection, sample collection and, in most programmes, some on-site analysis, determines to a large extent the quality of information obtained and represents a significant proportion of the total cost of a cyanobacteria or cyanotoxin monitoring programme. A well-designed and implemented fieldwork programme enhances the quality of the data obtained and may assist greatly in containing overall costs. The importance of careful programme design has been emphasised in Chapter 10, together with the need for pilot testing to refine programmes and to assess logistics. Properly trained field workers are the backbone of effective sampling and inspection programmes; aspects of their professional development and training are described in Chapter 7. Inclusion of members of the public as active participants in monitoring programmes is rapidly gaining acceptance and can contribute significantly to the quantity and quality of information obtained from a monitoring programm...
