Description
This book presents an in-depth discussion of the biological and ecological geography of the oceans. It synthesizes locally restricted
studies of the ocean to generate a global geography of the vast marine world.
Based on patterns of algal ecology, the book divides
the ocean into four primary compartments, which are then subdivided into secondary compartments.
Audience:
Faculty, researchers and graduate students interested in oceanography, marine biology, marine ecology, and other marine sciences. Sometimes
used as an undergrad text though not written specifically for this purpose.
