The so called “.animal forests.” are currently showing a dramatic loss of biomass and biodiversity all over the world. These communities are dominated by sessile suspension feeder organisms (such as sponges, corals, gorgonians, bivalves, etc.) that generate three-dimensional structures, similar to the trees in the terrestrial forest. The .animal forest. provide several ecosystem services such as food, protection and nursery to the associated fauna, playing an important role in the local hydrodynamic and biogeochemical cycles near the sea floor and acting also as .carbon sinks.. The present book focus its attention on these three dimensional animal structures including, for the first time, all the different types of animal forests of the world in a single volume.. | | 出版日期 | Reference work 2017 | | 关键词 | Benthic suspension feeders; Biogenic structures; Ecosystem engineers; Marine conservation; Trophic ecolo | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-21012-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-21012-4 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG 2017 |
