描述
Annotation Foraminifera and thecamoebians are highly sensitive to environmental stress (natural or anthropogenic). This feature means that they can be used to biologically characterize a variety of freshwater and coastal marine environments. Due to their small size and hard shells, large quantities are also found fossilised in core samples, making them ideal for reconstructing past environmental conditions. This volume covers the specific environmental applications of these organisms and contains an introduction to the subject, detailed descriptions of methods and techniques and case studies. Written for non-specialists, this book will appeal to resource managers and consultants in the public and private sector who routinely work on coastal environmental problems. The book will also serve as a supplementary text for graduate students in many courses on environmental monitoring, ecological baseline studies and environmental science

备用描述
Monitoring in Coastal Environments Using Foraminifera and Thecamoebian Indicators addresses one of the fundamental problems for environmental assessment - how to characterize the state of benthic environments cost effectively in regard to both contemporary and historical times. This book presents a comprehensive overview of sampling and sample processing methods as well as many examples in which these methods have been applied - from pollution impact studies to earthquake history investigations. This book introduces the topic to nonspecialists with a simple description of these two groups of protozoan organisms and then moves on to detailed descriptions of specific methods and techniques. Case studies are presented to illustrate how these techniques are applied. The appendix includes a glossary of terms and a taxonomic description of all species mentioned in the book. The main audience for this book will be resource managers and consultants in the public and private sectors who are working on coastal environmental problems. It will also serve as supplementary text for graduate students in many courses that deal with environmental monitoring, micropaleontology, or marine ecology, which are typically found in departments of environmental science, oceanography, marine geology, earth science, marine biology, an geography.--BOOK JACKET.
备用描述
The first book in this field to emphasize the methodological approaches being used for environmental applications of foraminifera and thecamoebians. Its main audience will include researchers and consultants, but it will also serve as a supplementary text for graduate students in courses that deal with environmental monitoring and assessment
备用描述
Many types of proxy indices, both physical/chemical and biological, have been used to estimate changes in various environmental parameters that are then related to the problem under consideration.
