Oceanography And Marine Biology: An Annual Review Volume 36

Edited By Alan Ansell, Margaret Barnes, R N Gibson, R. N. Gibson Copyright 1998

    Oceanography and Marine Biology: an Annual Review considers basic areas of marine research, returning to them when appropriate in future volumes, and deals with subjects of special and topical importance in the field of marine biology.  The thirty-sixth volume follows closely the objectives and style of the earlier well recieved volumes, continuing to regard marine sciences - with all their various aspects - as a unit.  Physical, chemical and biological aspects of marine science are dealt with by experts actively engaged in their own field.  The series is an essential reference text for research workers and students in all fields of marine science and related subjects, and is consistently among the highest ranking impact factors for the marine biology category of the citation indices compiled by the Institute for Scientific Education.
