Book excerpt: Aquariology occupies a position that is peripheral to the main body of science. More specialized disciplines - seaiology - provide the foundation for what is known about how how aquatic animals and plants live in captive environements. The gulf seperating specialists from aquarists has never been adequately spanned until now. For the first time, material from these specialized fields has been assimilated collated, and made available to aquarists. SEAWATER AQUARIUMS is the most comprehensive books of its kind ever written. Drawing on his own experiences in the public aquarium profession, Spotte deals with the maintenance of aquatic animals and plants in closed systems (aquariums in which the water s filtered and otherwise treated, and then reused). Aquatic organisms alter the water in which they live, and their well-being is in turn affected by the extent and nature if the changes. Thus, the book's primary theme is the control of water quality factors that affect the physiological processes of captive seawater organisms. Among the topics discussed in detail are: temperature control; lighting; aeration; buffering; bacteriological filtration; the workings of ultraviolet sterilizers and ozonators; physical adsorption methods; techniques for processing large volumes of influent seawater; and the origins and physiological effects of stress. The subject of the last chapter is the laboratory analysis of aquarium seawater. Both practical and theoretical aspects are integrated throughout the text, resulting in a unique blend of the latest theoretical information with practical techniques for using it. The accompanying bibliography is the most complete compendium of aquarium literature assembled to date. Researchers in freshwater, estuarine, and marine science; design engineers of public aquariums, hatcheries, aquaculture installations, and marine laboratories; oceanographic technicians; and public aquarium curators will all appreciate the usefulness of this unqie volume on seawater aquarium technology.

Book excerpt: In its third edition, this praised book demonstrates how the living systems modeling of aquatic ecosystems for ecological, biological and physiological research, and ecosystem restoration can produce answers to very complex ecological questions. Dynamic Aquaria further offers an understanding developed in 25 years of living ecosystem modeling and discusses how this knowledge has produced methods of efficiently solving many environmental problems. Public education through this methodology is the additional key to the broader ecosystem understanding necessary to allow human society to pass through the next evolutionary bottleneck of our species. Living systems modeling as a wide spectrum educational tool can provide a primary vehicle for that essential step. This third editon covers the many technological and biological developments in the eight plus years since the second edition, providing updated technological advice and describing many new example aquarium environments. Includes 16 page color insert with 57 color plates and 25% new photographs Offers 300 figures and 75 tables New chapter on Biogeography Over 50% new research in various chapters Significant updates in chapters include: The understanding of coral reef function especially the relationship between photosynthesis and calcification The use of living system models to solve problems of biogeography and the geographic dispersal and interaction of species populations The development of new techniques for global scale restoration of water and atmosphere The development of new techniques for closed system, sustainable aquaculture

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost a century and a half, biologists have gone to the seashore to study life. The oceans contain rich biodiversity, and organisms at the intersection of sea and shore provide a plentiful sampling for research into a variety of questions at the laboratory bench: How does life develop and how does it function? How are organisms that look different related, and what role does the environment play? From the Stazione Zoologica in Naples to the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, the Amoy Station in China, or the Misaki Station in Japan, students and researchers at seaside research stations have long visited the ocean to investigate life at all stages of development and to convene discussions of biological discoveries. Exploring the history and current reasons for study by the sea, this book examines key people, institutions, research projects, organisms selected for study, and competing theories and interpretations of discoveries, and it considers different ways of understanding research, such as through research repertoires. A celebration of coastal marine research, Why Study Biology by the Sea? reveals why scientists have moved from the beach to the lab bench and back.
