The development and ecology of coastal waters is an increasingly important topic and one which touches a wide range of areas including oceanography, hydrology, biology, ecology, fisheries sciences, aquaculture, civil engineering, geography, economics, law and social sciences. This book is ideal for those active in, with an interest in, the management and development of coastal areas, and provides a balanced overview allowing the reader to understand exactly what is at stake in the development and management of coastal waters. Ecology and Management of Coastal Waters is divided into three parts:

  • Part 1: Provides background knowledge for understanding the physical, chemical and biological phenomena of coastal waters.
  • Part 2: Looks at marine ecology differently; instead of viewing it from a traditional angle, the authors show how it is possible with marine ecosystems in which the biological, physical and chemical components are equally important when defining an entire system.
  • Part 3: Reviews of available technology for various types of development are provided.
