| 520 | 8 | |a Mangroves and seagrasses form extensive and highly productive ecosystems that are biologically diverse and economically valuable. This new edition provides a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of their biology and ecology, using a global range of examples. It deals with the adaptations of these plants to their exacting environment, the links between mangroves, seagrasses, and other coastal habitats, the evolution, biodiversity, and biogeography of mangroves and seagrasses, and the impact of climate change. | |
