Ecological Comparisons of Sedimentary Shores, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2001 Coll. Ecological Studies, Vol. 151
Coordonnateur : Reise K.
This volume analyzes and compares ecological structures and processes at sandy beaches, tidal mudflats and in shallow coastal waters all around the world. Analyses of local processes are paired with comparisons between distant shores, across latitudinal gradients or between separate biogeographic provinces. Emphasis is given to suspension feeders in coastal mud and sand, to biogenic stabilizations and disturbances in coastal sediments, to seagrass beds and faunal assemblages across latitudes and oceans, to recovery dynamics in benthic communities, shorebird predation, and to experimental approaches to the biota of sedimentary shores.
Provides a global perspective on the ecology of sedimentary shores and insights necessary for effective coastal management
