Oceanographic Processes of Coral Reefs: Physical and Biological Links in the Great Barrier Reef
E. Wolanski (ed)
Description:
Demonstrating the relevance and need of science in planning the future of
the Great Barrier Reef and coral reefs
worldwide, Oceanographic Processes of Coral Reefs: Physical and Biological
Links in the Great Barrier Reef
emphasizes multi-disciplinary processes - physical and biological links -
that have emerged as the dominant
forces shaping and controlling the ecosystem. The book draws heavily on
data from coral reefs in Australia,
Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Oceanographic Processes of Coral
Reefs: Physical and Biological
Links in the Great Barrier Reef covers: o Climate and global change o
Coastal oceanography o Wetlands ecology
o Estuaries o Marine biology o Land use management in the tropics o
Fisheries management o Coral Reef
ecological modeling o Biodiversity and the human impact Explore how the
ecosystem responds to both physical
and biological stimuli, and how they interact Understand processes
imperative to create sustainable design
strategies Comprehend the connectivity of biotopes - land, mangroves,
seagrass, and corals Discover the
relationship between managing marine resources and managing adjoining land
use Learn how fish behavior and
migration patterns control fisheries
