Reihe: Oceanography and Marine Biology - An Annual Review

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 refereed reviews summarising and synthesising the results of both historical and recent research. Oceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review continues to answer that need after six decades of publication.

Volume 63 features a review of the factors affecting resilience and recovery of the coral reefs of the Andaman Sea, a systematic review of the 2014-2016 Northeast Pacific marine heatwave, an exploration of coexisting mangrove-coral habitats, a discussion of the problems and solutions in European cephalopod fisheries, a dive into the aquaculture of Rabbit fishes, an examination of how historical land reclamation and coastal urbanisation continue to shape Britain’s Ocean City and, finally, an examination of transferable stressors in small cetaceans.

An international Editorial Board ensures global relevance and expert peer review, with editors from Australia, Denmark, Hong Kong, Ireland, Singapore and the UK. The series volumes find a place in the libraries of not only marine laboratories and oceanographic institutes but also universities worldwide. Three of the seven peer-reviewed contributions in Volume 63 are available to read Open Access via the webpage and on OAPEN.

Chapters 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9 of this volume are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

Über Autor(innen)

Bayden D. Russell is an Associate Director of the Swire Institute of Marine Science at the University of Hong Kong. His research seeks to understand the impact of climate change on ecosystem function, the biology of key species, and how best to manage and conserve ecosystems in this context. He also investigates the human relationship with, and dependence on, marine ecosystems and how these can be made sustainable through habitat restoration and development of multi-trophic aquaculture.

Peter A. Todd is Associate Professor in the Experimental Marine Ecology Lab at the National University of Singapore. He is an experimental marine ecologist who focusses on organism-environment interactions in nearshore waters, especially those close to urban centres. In both his curiosity-driven and translational work, he emphasises the design, build, implementation, and analysis of high-quality novel experiments. His research generates large quantities of new information and the great majority of my publications are data-based. He is fundamentally concerned with increasing understanding of the ecology and functioning of tropical coastal marine organisms and communities.
