Brazilian Marine Macroalgae, Gebunden

Klappentext

"Brazilian Marine Macroalgae" offers solutions by compiling the most up-to-date taxonomic information, supported by molecular data, which will allow researchers to accurately identify and classify macroalgae species along the Brazilian coast. It provides an in-depth look at the physiological and ecological characteristics of these algae, including the impacts of climate change and the potential for sustainable macroalgae aquaculture. By doing so, it offers pathways to increase production for economic uses, such as biotechnology, while promoting conservation efforts.

This book addresses a significant gap in the understanding of marine macroalgae biodiversity in Brazil, providing crucial insights into the taxonomy, ecology, physiology, and economic potential of red, green, and brown macroalgae along the Brazilian coast. There is an urgent need for a book in this area, given that no existing publication comprehensively compiles this information, leaving researchers, students, and professionals without a definitive resource on the subject.

With contributions from over 30 experts in phycology, "Brazilian Marine Macroalgae" will serve as an essential reference for professionals in biology, oceanography, chemistry, economics, and related fields, filling a critical knowledge gap and offering tools for better utilizing Brazil's rich marine biodiversity.
