Marine Ecology examines the ecological issues of marine ecosystems in unprecendented scope and depth.
Marine Ecology examines the ecological issues of marine ecosystems in unprecedented scope and depth. With contributions from an impressive group of Australian marine ecology academics and researchers, the book is comprehensive in its examination of ecology from the perspective of Australian ecosystems and their future, and sets a new standard in textbooks on marine ecology.The book begins with an examination of the fundamentals of marine ecology, then sets the Australian context by explaining the biogeographic patterns and processes of the continent. It then provides an overview of the major marine ecosystems, and finishes with the local through global changes to their ecology. This information equips Australian and international students and researchers with a cutting-edge view of Australian systems, while also identifying the deficiencies in capacity and progress of Australian marine ecology.

Sean Connell is a Lecturer at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Adelaide. Bronwyn Gillanders is a Lecturer at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Adelaide.
