This revised second edition of Jeffrey S. Levinton's Marine Function, Biodiversity, Ecology is a comprehensive resource for students in marine biology. It is tailored for one-semester junior/senior courses and incorporates the latest research developments. The new edition significantly expands coverage of marine mammals and hypothesis testing, while introducing new sections on subtidal rocky reefs, metapopulations, marine invasions, marine protected areas, no-take fishery zones, and molecular approaches to marine biology and fisheries. It emphasizes the functional ecology of organisms in relation to major marine habitats and ecosystems, effectively detailing various current research areas. "Hot Topics" Essays illustrate that scientific study is an evolving process. The text is complemented by numerous pedagogical features, including 32 full-color plates, expanded text boxes highlighting current research topics, and a self-test at the back of the book. A CD-ROM, "Marine Biology Explorations," offers a guided tour of marine environments with around 450 full-color photographs and illustrations from diverse regions. Additionally, a dedicated website provides links to marine biology programs, careers, and research literature. Ancillary PowerPoint® Overheads are available for adopters, and the associated laboratory manual, Exploring Marine Biology, offers exercises applicable to various marine habitats, complete with illustrated id
