Marine Biology: An Ecological Approachemphasizes the ecological principles that guide marine life throughout all environments within the world's oceans. Authors James Nybakken and Mark Bertness provide a unique ecological approach that helps students understand the real-world relevance of marine biology by exploring how organisms interact within their individual ecosystems. The text is organized by habitat, not classification, with each habitat receiving detailed, in-depth coverage that draws students into the subject matter. In addition, new co-author Mark Bertness's expertise and familiarity with East Coast marine life adds a balanced dimension to the coverage of the Atlantic and Pacific environments.

In addition to a new Taxonomic Appendix containing a detailed map of marine taxonomy, the Sixth Edition is fully updated with the latest research data and topics. These include new coverage of the intertidal zone, salt marshes and estuaries, and tropical communities, as well as a revised discussion of humans' impact on the sea. The new edition's pedagogy features end-of-chapter summaries, a full-color design, and a companion website designed just for students.

    Really useful book with some great in-depth case studies. Have used this book for all of my Marine Biology uni assignments so far. Most pages not in colour, but the content makes up for it!

    Dieses Buch ist wunderbar und erklärt wirklich alle Habitate des Meeres und dessen Ökosysteme. Die Bilder sind selbsterklärend und bunt, was mir immer hilft, diese zu lernen. Es ist in einem wirklich einfachen Englisch geschrieben und die Review Questions mit den zusammenfassenden Stichpunkten nach jedem Kapitel helfen einem alles nochmal zu rekapitulieren. Also an diesem Buch ist wirklich nichts dran auszusetzen.
