Coral Reefs of the Eastern Tropical Pacific
This book documents and examines the state of health of coral reefs in the eastern tropical Pacific region. It touches on the occurrence of coral reefs in the waters of surrounding countries, and it explores their biogeography, biodiversity and condition relative to the El Niño southern oscillation and human impacts. Additionally contained within is a field that presents information on many of the species presented in the preceding chapters.
Coral Reefs: An Ecosystem in Transition
This book covers in one volume materials scattered in hundreds of research articles, in most cases focusing on specialized aspects of coral biology. In addition to the latest developments in coral evolution and physiology, it presents chapters devoted to novel frontiers in coral reef research. These include the molecular biology of corals and their symbiotic algae, remote sensing of reef systems, ecology of coral disease spread, effects of various scenarios of global climate change, ocean acidification effects of increasing CO2 levels on coral calcification, and damaged coral reef remediation. Beyond extensive coverage of the above aspects, key issues regarding the coral organism and the reef ecosystem such as calcification, reproduction, modeling, algae, reef invertebrates, competition and fish are re-evaluated in the light of new research and emerging insights. In all chapters novel theories as well as challenges to established paradigms are introduced, evaluated and discussed. This volume is indispensible for all those involved in coral reef management and conservation.

Climate and Society in Europe
A richly illustrated book on the history of climate change in Europe. Two perspectives, one unique book: two leading experts, a historian and a climatologist, co-author a new standard work on climate history. An overview of the connection between climatic and social developments over the last 1000 years. For the first time, a historian and a climatologist with knowledge of climate history have worked closely together to create a unique book, combining climate reconstructions based on documented data in their human-historical context with temporally highly resolved analyses of climate and glaciers. "Here we can clearly see how changes in climate affected the environment and people of Europe o...
Klima und Gesellschaft in Europa
Reich illustriertes Sachbuch zur Geschichte des Klimawandels in Europa. Zwei Perspektiven, ein einzigartiger Bild-Text-Band: Zwei führende Experten, ein Historiker und ein Klimatologe, verfassen gemeinsam ein neues Standardwerk zur Klimageschichte. Ein Überblick über den Zusammenhang klimatischer und gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen der letzten 1000 Jahre. Erstmals haben für dieses Buch ein klimageschichtlich bewanderter Historiker und ein Klimatologe mit einem Flair für Klimageschichte eng zusammengearbeitet. Das Buch vermittelt eine einmalige Kombination von Klimarekonstruktionen anhand von Dokumentendaten in ihrem humangeschichtlichen Kontext und zeitlich hochaufgelösten Analysen de...
Echinoderm Research and Diversity in Latin America
This book compiles for the first time the development of echinoderm research in Latin America. The book contains 17 chapters, one introductory, 15 country chapters, and a final biogeographic analysis. It compiles all the investigations published in international and local journals, reports, theses and other gray literature. Each chapter is composed of 7 sections: introduction describes the marine environments, and main oceanographic characteristics, followed by a history of research account divided by specific subjects. The next section addresses patterns of distribution and diversity. A specific section would explain fishery or aquaculture activities. The next sections deal with environmental and anthropogenic threats that are affecting echinoderm, and any conservation or management action. Finally, a section with conclusions, needs and new lines of research. The book will include two appendixes with species lists of all echinoderms with bathimetric data, habitat and distribution.
