This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An editorial by Wanless (1982), entitled "Sea level is rising - so what?", tells the case of an executive editor of a major city newspaper, who, when confronted with evi dence for a recent sea-level rise, replied: "That just means the ocean is six inches deeper, doesn't it?". Whether his "so what?" attitude was real or put on to dike a threat of sensation, there is at present a wide and deepening interest in ongoing and future global sea-level change. This interest has grown along with the concern over global warming due to increasing levels of C02 and trace gases. A stage has been reached where investigators of climat- sea-level relationships call for long-term measurement programmes for ice-volume changes (using satellite altimetry) and changes in temperature and salinity of the oceans (ther mal expansion). This manual, however, is primarily concerned with sea level changes in the past, mainly since the end of the last glaciation. Its major objective is to help answer the ques tion: "how?", which, of course, is little else but to assist in the gathering of fuel for the burning question: "why?" Good fuel, hopefully, for the less smoke and ashes, and the more heat and light produced by that fire, the better scientists are enabled to develop a quantitative under standing of past, and hence of future, sea-level changes on different spatial and temporal scales.

Download or read book Spatial Dynamics of Crustose Coralline Algae and Turf Algae as an Indicator of Reef Recovery written by Christina Jayne and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, prolonged warming caused severe bleaching across reefs in the Main Hawaiian Islands resulting in widespread coral mortality. In addition to understanding changes in coral populations, it is also important to study algal dynamics on these reefs, especially with a focus on crustose coralline algae (CCA) and turf algae. CCA can serve as indicator for coral growth and recovery, thus playing a significant role in determining the future of bleached coral reefs. Meanwhile, turf algae quickly occupies available space, competes with corals and prevents coral settlement. To assess the state of these Hawaiian reefs, a large-scale mosaic imaging technique has been in use since 2014 to document the conditions of select sites before and after the bleaching event. These 33 m2 photomosaics cover three reefs in leeward Maui across a gradient of herbivore biomass and sediment input. Analysis of the mosaics shows marked differences in turf and CCA spatial dynamics and percent cover between sites. Sites more protected from anthropogenic influences had the greatest CCA growth, while the site most impacted by local stressors lost CCA abundance and had the highest increase in turf algae. This suggests local management and stressors around a reef may affect CCA and turf growth, and therefore influence coral recovery. The large-area mosaic imaging method may serve as a useful model for analyses of reef resilience on coral reefs.
Download or read book Marine Palaeoenvironmental Analysis from Fossils written by Dan W. J. Bosence and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 1995 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume critically reviews the use of fossils for the analysis of palaeoenvironments. The papers are multi-disciplinary, drawing on a host of geochemical, palaeoecological and palaeontological methods from traditional taxonomic uniformitarianism to more recently developed geochemical isotopic analyses. The approach of the book is analytical rather than taxonomic, concentrating on a range of techniques. The common thread, however, is that it is palaeontological material that is being considered, whether it be identifiable body fossils, trace fossils, distinctive fossil associates, diagenetically unaltered material or organic compounds. Using a number of methods, and comparing their results, allows different environmental controls to be isolated and provides more information on the record of past environmental parameters. The volume focuses on the data obtained from organisms and their remains and will be of importance to sedimentologists, stratigraphers and palaeontolgists who need to maximize their palaeoenvironmental interpretations of depositonal environments, facies models, sequence stratigraphy and palaeoclimates.--Provided by publisher.
