The complexity of the marine environment is reflected in the specialized and interdisciplinary journals covering marine science. Journals can focus on particular...
People of all ages are intrigued by the ocean, its inhabitants, dynamics and future. Our knowledge grows, but we change the ocean as we use its resources thus creating environmental problems and management challenges. When this volume is published, the Gulf of Mexico will not have recovered from the Deepwater...
