Aquatic Sciences And Fisheries Abstracts

Grey literature, which includes policy reports, technical guidelines and dissertations and theses, is produced by many actors within aquatic sciences, fisheries and aquaculture. Many hours of research go into producing these documents, often with the purpose of solving particular environmental, species or socio-economic problems. Whilst the nature of the problem tackled by much grey literature is focused on a specific problem in a specific area, its lessons can often be applied to similar problems or environments around the world. What prevents this taking place is that grey literature can be hard to access – due to the way it is produced and stored, grey literature can often be stored offline, or on institutional websites where it is difficult to access using internet search engines or databases.

Biological research has a wide range of applications in aquatic science, which explores aquatic organisms' morphological and physiological characteristics, their behavior and interactions, and their surrounding environment. Organized into five sections and written by experts in their respective fields, Biological Research in Aquatic Sciences covers topics including cryobiology, spermatology, climate change, migration of aquatic species, and plankton in aquatic ecosystems. This book will help researchers and interested readers better understand current trends in biological research regarding aquatic science.
