More About This Title The Sea: Volume 12 - Biological-Physical Interactions in the Sea

English

This book is the third in a new sequence of volumes of The Sea to be edited by Dr. Allan Robinson and a new, distinguished editorial board. As oceanography has matured over recent decades, the once separate interests of chemical, biological, and physical oceanographers have converged. These volumes reflect the change in attitude in oceanography to a solid, interdisciplinary approach.
