Book excerpt: The Ecology of Seashores explores the complex shore environment. It covers the ways in which representative species have adapted to life in a constantly changing environment in terms of their interactions, the control of community structure, and how energy and materials are cycled in different ecosystems. Written by an eminent marine biologist,

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These proceedings describe physical and biological observations (including remote sensing observations) made at such diverse marine ergoclines as pynoclines, fronts, water-sediment and water-ice interfaces in different locations and environmental conditions. Mathematical models are described which are used to investigate the phenomena, providing a common language for their interpretation and the bases of the ecohydrodynamic study of marine interfaces.

Download or read book Ecological Communities written by Donald R. Strong Jr. and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is the first to focus systematically on a much-debated topic: the conceptual issues of community ecology, including the nature of evidence in ecology, the role of experiments, attempts to disprove hypotheses, and the value of negative evidence in the discipline. Originally published in 1984. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hypothesis that planktonic larvae of benthic invertebrates sink through the water like passive particles in turbulent flows near the seabed was tested in the field using several groups of geometrically different sediment trap designs. A priori predictions regarding the rank order that the various traps would collect larvae in the field were dictated from laboratory flume experiments to determine the relative particle collection efficiencies of the traps. The flume flow was seeded with particles having fall velocities similar to those measured, in the laboratory, for nonswimming polychaete larvae. The flume flow speed (of about 10 cm/sec) was within the range of near-bottom current velocities measured during trap collection intervals at the field study site. The passive sinking hypothesis could not be falsified for collections of organisms from three invertebrate phyla (polychaetes, bivalves, and enteropneusts) in seven field experiments. Thus, hydrodynamical processes must be included in any future studies of mechanisms that determine patterns of larval settlement. Other processes that could have produced the results now must be tested against the passive sinking alternative hypothesis. If larvae sink like passive particles in near-bottom flows, as the results of this study suggest, then larvae may initially reach the seafloor at sites where particulates, with fall velocities similar to larvae, initially settle.
