The Red Sea
Author: Najeeb M.A. Rasul
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3662452014
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 627
Book Description
This book presents a broad overview of the current state of knowledge regarding the Red Sea, from its geological formation and oceanographic development to the environmental influences on its ecology and the changes it is experiencing due to the rapid development of its coastlines and role as one of the world’s major transport routes. The book gathers invited contributions from researchers with an interest in the geology, geophysics, oceanography and environment of the Red Sea, while also providing comprehensive new data and a complete review of the literature. It will be of interest not only to researchers actively studying the sea and its surroundings, but will also appeal to all those involved in planning and managing the Red Sea, its environment, its resources and the countries which rely on its existence.

Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
This book brings together, for the first time, all known information on the species of sea slugs of the Red Sea, belonging to 130 genera and 52 families. The contents include discussions on taxonomy, distribution, bionomics, habitats, and ecology. An introductory chapter describes in detail the history of studies on sea slugs of the Red Sea, and includes a section reproducing the old engravings, most which have never been seen since their original publication. The book is excellently illustrated by nearly 500 photos of living animals in their natural habitats, representing some 189 species, many of which are depicted for the first time.

Nudibranch & Sea Slug Identification
Author: Terrence Gosliner
Publisher: New World Publidcations
ISBN: 9781878348678
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In 2015 three leading scientific experts on nudibranchs and sea slugs collaborated to produce a comprehensive guide for divers and scientists to the Indo-Pacific region. After only three years, Nudibranch and Sea Slug Identification Indo-Pacific has sold out and become outdated due to the discovery of new species and numerous changes to the taxonomy of these organisms. On 1 November 2018, a new 2nd Edition will be realeased -- updated and reorganised, including 185 new species. Among other features, the new edition includes additional photographs of species, an identification key, and an up-to-date classification. The Indo-Pacific represents the largest expanse of tropical ocean in the world, stretching from the Indian Ocean coast of southern Africa and the Red Sea to the central Pacific of the Hawaiian Islands, Easter Island and the Marquesas. This region supports the most diverse marine fauna of any place in the world for most groups of marine organisms. The nudibranchs and sea slugs are no exception to this rule; there are about 3,000 described species of these organisms in the world and at least 40% of these have been found exclusively in the Indo-Pacific tropics. This book illustrates 2,138 Indo-Pacific nudibranchs and sea slugs, including many undescribed species.

Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
The Red Sea is a unique and fragile environment. All but landlocked between Africa and Arabia, its peculiar oceanographic conditions, its geographical position and its geological history all conspire to make it particularly vulnerable to the side-effects of human civilization. In places, it is already a key environment under threat. What makes the Red Sea unique? What are the threats to this environment? Where should future research be directed? These are just three of the major questions addressed by the scientists contributing to this book.

ISBN:

Pages : 303
Book Description
You have never seen such a Red Sea! The pages are full of previously unknown species of fish, nudibranchs, and crustaceans. Many of them were discovered by the author and his colleagues. But even previously well-known species are photographed with unprecedented quality! This author's photo guides on fish, nudibranchs, crustaceans, sea shells, echinoderms and flatworms have been highly acclaimed by divers and scientists, but he has always dreamed of writing a comprehensive book on the fauna of coral reefs in the Red Sea. And Red Sea Marine Life is a truly comprehensive: 2900 full colour photographs of 2100+ species, including 810+ fish species, 250 cnidarians (corals and relatives) and near 350 species of nudibranchs and sea slugs. Live photo of hundreds of species have never before appeared in field guides or popular books. The most experienced Red Sea dive guides open their eyes wide when they see photos of rare and beautiful fish or nudibranchs species in this book. A lot has changed in marine biology in the two decades since the previous Red Sea guides were published. And this book is based on the latest research. Red Sea Marine Life will make you take a fresh look at the seemingly well-known Red Sea, the house reef of Europe.
