Book Synopsis Life on the Reef: Corals, Sea Squirts, Sponges, Bryozoa, Comb Jellies, Marine Plants by : Andrey Ryanskiy
Download or read book Life on the Reef: Corals, Sea Squirts, Sponges, Bryozoa, Comb Jellies, Marine Plants written by Andrey Ryanskiy and published by Andrey Ryanskiy. This book was released on 2024-05-23 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corals, sponges, bryozoans and sea squirts form a significant part of the biodiversity of a coral reef. Without knowledge of their main features, families and species, a scuba diver, underwater photographer or snorkeler cannot even understand what he sees underwater. This book provides not only this necessary knowledge, but also gives numerous examples of macro-life associated with it. This is important because it is impossible to be an expert on nudibranchs, shrimps or fish without knowing their habitats. The book will be helpful for people in science and reef conservation, especially when doing surveys, as it is very comprehensive when it comes to benthic community. It incorporates the most current scientific research, including the latest taxonomy information as of publication date. The reef animals and marine plants considered in this book are grouped into 10 phyla: Corals & allies (Cnidaria),Sea Squirts (Tunicata), Sponges (Porifera), Moss Animals (Bryozoa), Comb Jellies (Ctenophora), Brachiopods, Entoprocts, Foraminiferans, Sea Weeds and Cyanobacteria. The book also provides basic information about jellyfish. It features the species most commonly found underwater, as well as some of the most amazing species, such as the Immortal Jellyfish, the dangerous Box Jellyfish, and the Man of War or Bluebottle Jellyfish. It is not surprising that corals, anemones and related species take up more than half of this book, given their enormous importance in ocean life and their amazing diversity. More surprising is the fact that, given the ongoing tectonic processes in the taxonomy of corals, popular guides written in language accessible to a layman have not been published for more than 20 years. However, the remaining groups of coral reef inhabitants from this book have been forgotten by the general public for even longer, and some of them are simply unknown to most divers, and underwater photographers today. Together with this volume, the total coverage of the species in the Reef ID Books series of eight books reaches an incredible number of 8500 species! Inside the book: • Over 2100 full color photographs of 1430+ species; • Live photographs of most species have not appeared in field guides or popular books in recent decades; • Convenient pictorial guides are complemented by a genera index at the end of the book.

Download or read book Spineless written by Juli Berwald and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A book full of wonders" —Helen Macdonald, author of H Is for Hawk "Witty, insightful. . . .The story of jellyfish. . . is a significant part of the environmental story. Berwald's engaging account of these delicate, often ignored creatures shows how much they matter to our oceans' future." —New York Times Book Review Jellyfish have been swimming in our oceans for well over half a billion years, longer than any other animal that lives on the planet. They make a venom so toxic it can kill a human in three minutes. Their sting—microscopic spears that pierce with five million times the acceleration of gravity—is the fastest known motion in the animal kingdom. Made of roughly 95 percent water, some jellies are barely perceptible virtuosos of disguise, while others glow with a luminescence that has revolutionized biotechnology. Yet until recently, jellyfish were largely ignored by science, and they remain among the most poorly understood of ocean dwellers. More than a decade ago, Juli Berwald left a career in ocean science to raise a family in landlocked Austin, Texas, but jellyfish drew her back to the sea. Recent, massive blooms of billions of jellyfish have clogged power plants, decimated fisheries, and caused millions of dollars of damage. Driven by questions about how overfishing, coastal development, and climate change were contributing to a jellyfish population explosion, Juli embarked on a scientific odyssey. She traveled the globe to meet the biologists who devote their careers to jellies, hitched rides on Japanese fishing boats to see giant jellyfish in the wild, raised jellyfish in her dining room, and throughout it all marveled at the complexity of these alluring and ominous biological wonders. Gracefully blending personal memoir with crystal-clear distillations of science, Spineless is the story of how Juli learned to navigate and ultimately embrace her ambition, her curiosity, and her passion for the natural world. She discovers that jellyfish science is more than just a quest for answers. It’s a call to realize our collective responsibility for the planet we share.
