These ecosystems cover large surface areas in the shallow tropical coastal seascape but have suffered from serious human degradation, especially in the last few decades. Part of their diversity, productivity, and functioning seems to be based on their juxtaposition. Especially in the last decade significant advances have been made on new insights into their ecological connectivity. This authoritative book provides a first-time comprehensive review of the major ecological interactions across tropical marine ecosystems that result from the mutual exchange of nutrients, organic matter, fish, and crustaceans. A group of leading authors from around the world reviews the patterns and underlying mechanisms of important biogeochemical and biological linkages among tropical coastal ecosystems in 15 chapters. Includedare chapters that review cutting-edge tools to study and quantify these linkages, the importance of such linkages for fisheries, and how tropical ecosystems should be conserved and managed for sustainab | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | Coral reef fishes; Decapods; Ecology; Ecosystems Interactions; Mangrove; Tropical coastal habitats; ecosys | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-90-481-2406-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-7991-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-90-481-2406-0 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009 |
