Grégory Beaugrand

Marine Biodiversity, Climatic Variability and Global Change

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Biodiversity loss in terrestrial environments associated with human activities has been appreciated as a major issue for some years now. What is less well documented is the effect of such activities, including climate change, on marine biodiversity. This pioneering book is the first to address this important but neglected topic, which is likely to be the key challenge for marine scientists in the near future.
