Marine Environmental Biology and Conservation provides an introduction to the environmental and anthropogenic threats facing the world's oceans, and outlines the steps that can and should be taken to protect these vital habitats. It begins with a brief overview of the essentials of marine biology and oceanography necessary to understand the conservation material.
