Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biology of the Sea-Shore Hitherto, the authors of works dealing with the sea-shore have confined themselves almost entirely to describing and classifying the different forms of life occurring between tidemarks. The main idea underlying the present work, on the other hand, is to treat the plants and animals inhabiting the sea-shore from the ecological standpoint: to show, that is, how they interact and, in particular, to demonstrate the influence of the environment upon their structure, functions, habits and general reactions. A knowledge of the external appearance and chief structural features of the commoner species is taken for granted, and the book is addressed more particularly to the serious student of biology. But while, on the one hand, no attempt has been made to shun technicalities, on the other, care has been exercised that they should not be multiplied unnecessarily. Consequently, there should be nothing in the mode of treatment of the work which unfits it for use by the general reader. The value of the sea-shore as a biological training ground in general, and as a field for ecological study in particular, is generally recognised. With the exception of the shallow sea, no other area on the globe is so rich in numbers and variety of animal species. The fact that the sea-shore is one of the oldest haunts of life makes it particularly valuable for the study of evolutionary processes. Existence on the seashore implies the solution of a number of exceptionally interesting problems; in particular, the rhythmical and other ailed factors influencing shore organisms are of a nature which is unparalleled elsewhere.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biology of the Sea-Shore While the ecological aspect of the sea-shore has attracted a great number of research workers, from the point of view of teaching it would not seem to have received an equivalent amount of attention. It cannot be doubted that if a student confines himself, when on the sea-shore, purely to collecting and labelling species he is not obtaining a tithe of the benefit that his visit is capable of affording him. Consequently in planning this work, one of our chief ambitions has been to stimulate a wider interest on the part of the student by depicting for him something of the wonderfully vigorous and many-sided nature of the struggle for existence between tide-marks, and by drawing his attention to some of the innumerable problems connected with shore animals which still await investigation. We have had no wish to treat our subject exhaustively. For the most part we have confined ourselves to those British species with which we have first-hand acquaintance. To have foregone, however, all mention of foreign and, in particular, of tropical forms, would be to have excluded phenomena of the very greatest interest to our theme. It frequently happens, for instance, that a habit or an associa tion which is only slightly developed on our own shores has been brought to a high degree of specialisation elsewhere, especially in warmer seas. Consequently, we have not hesitated to give cases of this kind as large a measure of our attention as space allowed. For analogous reasons, while our main concern is with species occurring between tide marks, we have not infrequently extended our survey to include forms which more properly belong to the waters beyond the Laminarian zone.

Download or read book A Student's Guide to the Seashore written by J. D. Fish and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-01-13 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique, concise and beautifully-illustrated guide allows students to identify over 650 of the common, widespread animals and seaweeds of the shore. User-friendly dichotomous keys are supported by details of diagnostic features and biology of each species. Now enhanced with 32 pages of colour, this much acclaimed guide is invaluable to students of marine biology at any level. Questions such as how does the species reproduce? What is its life-cycle? How does it feed? are answered in the notes accompanying each species to give a fascinating insight into the diversity and complexity of life on the shore. The text is supported by an extensive glossary of scientific terms and a comprehensive bibliography is included to aid further study. The third edition builds on the excellent reviews of earlier editions and will continue to appeal to a wide readership, including students, teachers and naturalists.

Book excerpt: "Since the middle of the 19th century, biologists have migrated to the seashore to study marine organisms as a way of understanding life. By the turn of the 20th century, such work was being done inside permanent seaside field stations. The Stazione Zoologica, in Naples, Italy (from 1874), and the Marine Biological Laboratory, in Woods Hole, Massachusetts (from 1888), attracted leaders in many biological fields, and helped establish biology as a modern science. Why Study Biology by the Sea? tells the story of these unique scientific institutions while attempting to answer the contemporary question, "Why study biology by the sea?" The volume examines the origins and value of these places via perspectives that range from cell biology to philosophy of science"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waves and tides, wind and storms, sea-level rise and shore erosion: these are the forces that shape our beaches, and beach lovers of all stripes can benefit from learning more about how these coastal processes work. With animation and clarity, The Beach Book tells sunbathers why beaches widen and narrow, and helps boaters and anglers understand why tidal inlets migrate. It gives home buyers insight into erosion rates and provides natural-resource managers and interested citizens with rich information on beach nourishment and coastal-zone development. And for all of us concerned about the long-term health of our beaches, it outlines the latest scientific information on sea-level rise and introduces ways to combat not only the erosion of beaches but also the decline of other coastal habitats. The more we learn about coastline formation and maintenance, Carl Hobbs argues, the better we can appreciate and cultivate our shores. Informed by the latest research and infused with a passion for its subject, The Beach Book provides a wide-ranging introduction to the shore, and all of us who love the beach and its associated environments will find it timely and useful.
