Marine Conservation Ecology

  • Publisher: Routledge

This major textbook provides a broad coverage of the ecological foundations of marine conservation, including the rationale, importance and practicalities of various approaches to marine conservation and management. The scope of the book encompasses an understanding of the elements of marine biodiversity - from global to local levels - threats to marine biodiversity, and the structure and function of marine environments as related to conservation issues. The authors describe the potential approaches, initiatives and various options for conservation, from the genetic to the species, community and ecosystem levels in marine environments. They explore methods for identifying the units of conservation, and the development of defensible frameworks for marine conservation. They describe planning of ecologically integrated conservation strategies, including decision-making on size, boundaries, numbers and connectivity of protected area networks. The book also addresses relationships between fisheries and biodiversity, novel methods for conservation planning in the coastal zone and the evaluation of conservation initiatives.

  • Publisher: Springer

The meeting of Aquatic Noise 2013 will introduce participants to the most recent research data, regulatory issues and thinking about effects of man-made noise and will foster critical cross-disciplinary discussion between the participants. Emphasis will be on the cross-fertilization of ideas and findings across species and noise sources. As with its predecessor, The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life: 3rd International Conference will encourage discussion of the impact of underwater sound, its regulation and mitigation of its effects. With over 100 contributions from leading researchers, a wide range of sources of underwater sound will be considered.

Fishes in Estuaries

This landmark publication collates information and studies on the use of estuaries, and specific habitats within them, as nursery, feeding and refuge areas, and migration routes of marine and other fish, many of which are of commercial and conservation importance. The editors and authors of the book have carefully compiled a huge wealth of information from the work of 18 organizations across 11 countries, providing a unique collection of data never before brought together within the covers of one book. Chapters within this exceptional publication cover habitat use by fishes, recruitment and production in estuaries, links between fish and other trophic levels, endangered and rare species, est...

Major Biological Processes in European Tidal Estuaries

Nineteen papers representing the results of a project funded by the Commission of the European Communities to study macrotidal estuaries from the Elbe to the Tagus in a comparative and coherent manner by way of a standardized methodology. The papers address topics in primary production, bacterial processes, zooplankton, hyperbenthos, meiobenthos, macrobenthos, and modeling. A major result of the comparison is that salinity gradients explain species succession within each estuary, yet similar succession series are found at different salinity levels in different estuaries. The volume is reprinted from Hydrobiologia, v.311, 1995. Includes graphs and maps. Lacks an index. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
