The first authoritative illustrated reference guide to the world’s ghost sharks Ghost sharks, also known as chimaeras, are cartilaginous fish related to sharks and rays sharing a common ancestor dating back some 400 million years. These extraordinary fish are found in virtually every ocean on the planet, and while a few inhabit coastal waters, most live at depths that can make them incredibly difficult to study and observe. This comprehensive reference book covers every known species of chimaera to date. Illustrated with spectacular photos, detailed drawings, and informative diagrams, Ghost Sharks is the essential guide to this enigmatic order of shark-like fish. <ul><li>Describes all 59 known species to date</li><li>Features a wealth of stunning color illustrations</li><li>Detailed species accounts cover everything from distribution and behavior to biology, natural history, and conservation</li><li>Includes a color distribution map for every species</li><li>Written by leading experts and incorporating the latest taxonomic revisions</li><li>A must for shark and fish enthusiasts everywhere</li></ul>

Urban Air Pollution and Plant Responses: The Critical Connection Between Urban Air Quality and Plants delves into the complex relationship between urban air pollution and plants, examining how plants are affected by air pollutants in urban environments. An expert group of contributing authors explores the nature and sources of urban air pollutants, highlighting the challenges posed by poor air quality in urban areas. The chapters cover various plant responses to urban air pollution, including physiological, morphological, and biochemical reactions. Additionally, the book addresses the impact of urban air pollution on agriculture and discusses the role of plants in producing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and their effects on air pollution. Sustainable urban planning strategies, innovations in urban greening, and policy and management approaches are explored as means to improve air quality and create healthier urban landscapes. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the critical connection between urban air quality, air pollution, and plant health, offering insights and solutions for achieving sustainable, cleaner growth in urban areas.

Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities delves into the extensive and highly diverse world of marine microbes, an assemblage of organisms that contain a broad array of bioactive chemicals. Often unique due to the extreme environmental conditions in which they are synthesized, these chemicals present opportunities for innovations in human health, environmental sustainability, and technological progress. Readers will gain valuable insights into the biodiversity of marine microbes, characterization of their bioactive chemicals, and opportunities for innovation and sustainable development across multiple sectors. Written and edited by a diverse team of environmental microbiologists, this book is systematically structured to provide readers with a foundational understanding of marine microbial taxa, the products that may be synthesized from these organisms, technological innovations, and future directions of research. Chapters collate the most current research in healthcare, sustainable industry, and commercial production to provide readers with the latest information on antibiotics, antivirals, anticancer therapeutics, immunosuppresive chemicals, bioremediation, food processing, biofertilizers, biopesticides, cosmetics, pigments, probiotics, and functional foods. Given the interdisciplinary nature of this growing area of research, Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities is structured for accessibility to academic and professional audiences spanning a variety of sectors. It is an indispensable resource for students, professors, researchers, and industry professionals in biology, biotechnology, sustainable development, food and healthcare sciences, and adjacent industries.

Climate Smart Crops: Enhancing Resilience and Adaptation is a comprehensive overview of modern technologies and strategies to improve plants in terms of food, feed, fodder, fibre and fuel production for human well-being in the face of climate change. With focus on the latest advances in plant molecular mapping and genome sequencing, it demonstrates how genomics-assisted strategies can be utilized to produce improved plants with climate-smart traits. Significant successes in the areas of molecular breeding, transgenics and genomics have contributed to revolutionary modifications in cereal-vegetable-fruit-oilseed crop-improvement strategies and methods, but there is still work to be done. Understanding the strategies and approaches that are most appropriate for enhancing production is key to effective, efficient, and timely advancement of further crop yield quality and quantity through crop genetics, genomics, breeding, biotechnology, and in the disciplines of agronomy, agriculture, agroforestry, horticulture and phytoremediation. Climate Smart Crops: Enhancing Resilience and Adaptation provides an excellent basis for current state of the science for climate smart crops as well as and inspiring future research.

The contribution of vegetation to slope stability is a complex, multi-scale, and multi-agent mechanism, necessitating inter-disciplinary research. Due to varying backgrounds of researchers working on this topic, standardization of methods and a systematic classification of models is lacking. Root Reinforcement: Measurement and Modeling intends to build confidence among interdisciplinary researchers working in geohazards on how to include vegetation in engineering design by providing more clarity on how to quantify reinforcement, by both focusing on how to collect data (measurements) and how to interpret data collected to make predictions for modified soil properties (modelling). Root Reinforcement: Measurement and Modeling covers mechanical and hydrological interactions between soil and plant roots. It explores and compares measurement techniques, and systematically dissects predictive models developed in the last fifty years of research. The methodical approach and inclusion of executable code makes it a suitable resource for both researchers and practitioners, especially those new to this field.
