Description:

With good reason, there is growing concern about the damage inflicted by human activities on the seas and coastal environments. This textbook gives a clear and objective introduction to the subject. It describes the various types of wastes that enter the sea, their effects on marine life and habitats, and their impact on fisheries and human health. Emphasis is placed on what has been learned from practical experience. The author explains the factors that must be weighed in assessing pollution damage, with case histories from the North Sea, the Baltic, the Mediterranean, the Caspian, and the Caribbean. The third edition of this highly acclaimed textbook has been fully revised and updated to reflect current views about the threat of marine pollution and the remedial measures being taken.
