A beautifully illustrated photographic identification guide to the marine crustaceans of Britain and Ireland—essential for divers, snorkellers and beachcombers Crustaceans are a diverse group of animals found all around the coasts of Britain and Ireland, from beaches to deep offshore waters. This field guide offers a practical, easy-to-use approach for identifying the crustacean species commonly seen in the region. The book’s incisive text and informative diagrams highlight key identification features and are accompanied by numerous photos of each species in its natural environment wherever possible. It also clearly explains when species identification is not possible, indicating an appropriate taxonomic level in such cases. Published in association with the UK’s Marine Conservation Society, Marine Crustaceans of Britain and Ireland is an invaluable addition to the series of marine photographic titles of Seasearch, a long-standing species recording project for volunteers.<ul><li>Features in-depth descriptions of each species with information on size, depth range, habitat and distribution in the Seasearch guide icon format</li><li>Illustrates each species in its natural environment to aid visual recognition</li><li>Emphasises key identification features and possible confusion species</li><li>Includes a “confidence guide” distinguishing between easily recognisable species and those requiring closer examination</li><li>Features longer sections highlighting noteworthy species, behaviours and other topics</li><li>Provides information on protected and non-native species, taxonomy, commercial importance and pressures, shifting distributions and conservation status</li></ul>

SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION LONGLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION No matter where we live, 'we are all ocean people,' Helen Scales observes in her bracing yet hopeful exploration of the future of the ocean. Beginning with its fascinating deep history, Scales links past to present to show how prehistoric ocean ecology holds lessons for the ocean of today. In elegant, evocative prose, she takes us into the realms of animals that epitomize current increasingly challenging conditions, from emperor penguins to sharks and orcas. Yet despite these threats, many hopeful signs remain, in the form of highly protected reserves, the regeneration of seagrass meadows and giant kelp forests and efforts to protect coral reefs. Offering innovative ideas for protecting coastlines and cleaning the toxic seas, Scales insists we need more ethical and sustainable fisheries and must prevent the other existential threat of deep-sea mining. Inspiring us all to maintain a sense of awe and wonder at the majesty beneath the waves, she urges us to fight for the better future that still exists for the ocean.

An impassioned examination of the existential threats to the world's ocean and cautious optimism for the abundant life within it.

Mirabelle and the Enchanted Sea Globe

Breathtaking displays of color and light from an array of ocean life forms, with vivid photography and insightful text about the science of transparency, bioluminescence, and fluorescence Deep in the ocean, a myriad of creatures, including jellyfish, coral, shrimp, sharks, squid, lantern fish, anglerfish, sea fireflies, and fireworms use multi-colored lights for defense, luring food, attracting mates, and communication. The Radiant Sea presents an exciting new perspective on the mysterious environment that accounts for 99 percent of the habitable space on Earth but remains hidden to the casual observer. Two of the world’s leading researchers explore the nature of underwater light, investigating the varieties of transparency, pigmentation, iridescence, bioluminescence, and fluorescence. Based on the latest available research, they examine the need for—and likely function of—color and light shows among marine species. Each luminous wonder is described with informative captions and colorfully represented by the finest nature photography.

A comprehensive synthesis of mussel-driven ecosystem processes and their role in freshwater sustainability.Freshwater mussels are among the most endangered animals on the planet--and some of the most ecologically important. As powerful filter feeders and ecosystem engineers, mussels influence everything from water clarity and nutrient cycling to the structure of entire aquatic communities. In The Functional Ecology of Freshwater Mussels, Caryn C. Vaughn offers the most comprehensive synthesis to date of how mussels shape the ecosystems they inhabit. Integrating more than 30 years of original field and laboratory research with a rapidly expanding global literature, Vaughn examines how mussels support water quality, contribute to biogeochemical processes, influence food web dynamics, and enhance biodiversity across aquatic and adjacent terrestrial environments. Chapters detail the biology and life history of mussels, the complex interactions within their communities, and the environmental conditions that influence their performance. Vaughn shows how species-specific traits and environmental context shape the magnitude of diverse mussel functions. With attention to the consequences of species composition, habitat variation, and climate stressors, the book shows how mussel-driven processes scale from individual organisms to entire river systems. Vaughn presents practical strategies for conservation and explains how effective restoration requires linking mussel biology with the goals of broader ecosystem management. The Functional Ecology of Freshwater Mussels is an essential reference for ecologists, conservation professionals, aquatic resource managers, and policymakers concerned with the sustainability of freshwater systems.
