✦ Synopsis

The multidisciplinary character of this encyclopedia of marine sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Geology, Physics in Oceanography) is presented in 3000 up-to-date, alphabetically listed keywords, and many illustrations, which give scientists, teachers, and students a helpful and time-saving aid when studying marine scientific literature. The brief explanation of the concepts, terminology and methods make this book more valuable than a pure glossary or dictionary.
