This reprint is a comprehensive compilation of both new discoveries and methods related to nature hydrate and deep-water hydrocarbon. This reprint contains the advanced methods used in natural gas hydrate and deep-water hydrocarbon exploration. Its…

Many scientists have tried to isolate novel and active compounds mainly from micro-organisms,
including bacteria, Streptomyces, fungi, plants, and ordinary marine organisms since the middle of
the 20th century. However, after the long history of…

This book provides an understanding on a large variety of related topics in fish biology. The further development on molecular and cellular biology and ecology leads to assimilate the newer scientific knowledge in this area. Leading research works…

In recent decades, there has been an increase in the development of strategies for water ecosystem mapping and monitoring. Overall, this is primarily due to legislative efforts to improve the quality of water bodies and oceans. Remote sensing has…

: This work describes the design, implementation and validation of the Black Sea physics
analysis and forecasting system, developed by the Black Sea Physics production unit within the
Black Sea Monitoring and Forecasting Center as part of the…

Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is widely used as an initial step towards an assessment
of environmental status. In the present study, underwater ambient sound recordings from two
monitoring locations in marine-protected areas (MPAs) of the Gulf…

The 21st century is characterized as an era of natural resource depletion, and humanity is faced with several threats due to the lack of food, energy, and water. Climate change and sea-level rise are at unprecedented levels, being phenomena that make…

Oceanic internal waves (IWs) at frequencies from local inertial (e.g., near-inertial internal waves) to buoyancy frequencies (nonlinear internal waves or internal solitary waves), sometimes including diurnal and semidiurnal tidal frequencies, play an…

This book covers technical articles based on individual contributions from a number of authors working on offshore wind, wave and tidal energy research. Articles describing various aspects of offshore wind, wave and tidal energies including resource…

Otoliths are one of the most useful and important biological structures for the various
studies of fish, leading to many practical applications that are not limited only to
ichthyology. It is, therefore, not surprising that different approaches to…
