Abstract
Oceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review remains one of the most cited sources in marine science and oceanography. The ever increasing interest in work in oceanography and marine biology and its relevance to global environmental issues, especially global climate change and its impacts, creates a demand for authoritative reviews summarizing the results of recent research. This volume covers topics that include resting cysts from coastal marine plankton, facilitation cascades in marine ecosystems, and the way that human activities are rapidly altering the sensory landscape and behaviour of marine animals. For more than 50 years, OMBAR has been an essential reference for research workers and students in all fields of marine science. From Volume 57 a new international Editorial Board ensures global relevance, with editors from the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia and Singapore. The series volumes find a place in the libraries of not only marine laboratories and institutes, but also universities.

  • Chapter 7 A Review of Biophysical Models of Marine Larval Dispersal
    Swearer, Stephen E.; Treml, Eric A.; Shima, Jeffrey S. (2019)
    Larval dispersal is arguably the most important but least understood demographic process in the sea. The likelihood of a larva dispersing from its birthplace to successfully recruit in another location is the culmination ...
  • Chapter 6 Biology and Ecology of the Globally Significant Kelp Ecklonia radiata
    Wernberg, Thomas; Coleman, Melinda A.; Babcock, Russell C.; Bell, Sahira Y.; Bolton, John J.; Connell, Sean D.; Hurd, Catriona L.; Johnson, Craig R.; Marzinelli, Ezequiel M.; Shears, Nick T.; Steinberg, Peter D.; Thomsen, Mads S.; Vanderklift, Mathew A.; Verges, Adriana; Wright, Jeffrey T. (2019)
    Ecklonia radiata is one of the most widespread kelps globally, dominating temperate reefs throughout much of Australasia and southeastern Africa. Throughout much of its range, it is the only laminarian kelp and hence ...
