| Summary: |
"Climate change is having an increasing impact on estuarine and marine environments worldwide. This handbook provides state-of-the-art coverage of climate change effects on estuarine ecosystems from local, regional, and global perspectives. Comprised of chapters prepared by world leaders in estuarine and marine science, climate change, and coastal management, it comprises an extensive international collection of data in tabular, illustrated, and narrative formats useful for coastal scientists, planners, and managers. Consisting of three sections: (1) physical-chemical aspects; (2) biological aspects; and (3) management aspects, the book not only examines climatic and non-climatic drivers of change affecting estuarine environments but also their interactions and effects on populations of organisms, communities, habitats, and ecosystem structure and function. Pulling together today's most salient issues and key literature advances for those concerned with coastal management, it allows the reader to see across direct and indirect interactions among disciplinary and ecosystem boundaries. Climate Change and Estuaries meets the research needs of estuarine and marine biologists, marine chemists, marine geologists, hydrologists, and coastal engineers, while students, professors, academic administrators, and other professionals will also find it an exhaustive reference"-- |
