Marine Ecosystem: Conservation and Management
A marine ecosystem comprises the intricate network of living organisms, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, interacting with the physical and chemical environment of the ocean. These ecosystems are vital for global biodiversity, covering over 70% of the Earth's surface. Key components include coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds, and the open ocean. Marine ecosystems provide critical services such as oxygen production, climate regulation, and food resources. They support a vast array of species, from microscopic plankton to the largest whales. Human activities, like overfishing, pollution, and climate change, pose significant threats to marine ecosystems, leading to habitat destruction and biodiversity loss. Conservation efforts, including marine protected areas and sustainable practices, are essential to preserve these ecosystems' health and functionality. Understanding and protecting marine ecosystems is also crucial for maintaining the planet's overall ecological balance and ensuring resources for future generations. This book consists of contributions made by international experts in the field of marine conservation and management. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included in this book. Through this book, we attempt to further enlighten the readers about the new concepts in the field of conservation and management of marine ecosystems.
