At 37 trillion individuals per year, wild-caught shrimp and prawns appear to be the single most numerous group of animals directly killed for human food consumption on the planet.
Over the past century and a half, advancements in polymer science-encompassing both natural and synthetic materials-have led to the development of strong, lightweight, and highly flexible polymers.

As blue biotechnology-the application of science and technology to living aquatic organisms for the production of knowledge, goods, and services-is gaining momentum in recent decades, this volume provides needed and the state-of-the-art information on the biotechnological potential of the as-yet understudied world of ascidians (sea squirts) of the different seas and oceans.
Interrelationships Between Corals and Fisheries is derived from a workshop held by the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council in Tampa, Florida in May 2013, where world authorities came together to discuss the current problems in managing tropical fisheries and offered suggestions for future directions for both researchers and environmental reso
With over 70 species still populating the world's oceans after approximately 500 million years, hagfishes are essential benthic organisms that play a vital role in understanding the evolutionary origins of vertebrate life and the maintenance of the oceanic ecosystem.
Acknowledging the present inability to determine objectively the status and trends among estuarine ecosystems, the environmental research community has recently stepped up efforts to develop and evaluate meaningful estuarine indicators.
The 2015 International Conference on Water Resource and Environment (WRE2015) aims to provide a platform where scholars from different countries can exchange ideas, opinions and views.
Estuaries in every country exemplify the same paradox- they are among the most productive ecosystems and also among the most impacted by anthropogenic activities.
Los Estados ejercen el dominio sobre los recursos naturales vivos marinos desde la costa hasta las 200 millas marinas (M) y, en lo que respecta al lecho y subsuelo marino, hasta el límite exterior de la plataforma continental; los recursos genéticos marinos (RGM) son uno de esos recursos.
