Variability of Ecosystems

  • Chapter
Book cover Advances in Oceanography

Abstract

Investigations of the last decades have shown the picture of the distribution of oceanic flora and fauna and made it possible to recognise large-scale communities which, together with the water masses they inhabit, constitute single ecosystems.
