This excellent new volume is devoted to the ecology, biodiversity, and energy production and flow of macroalgae and seagrasses living along the coastlines of oceans and the most recent environmental threats to their communities. Chapters are written by experts in the field and packed with detailed information and primary sources, together forming a synopsis of the role of these critical producers.... The editor has nicely tied the chapters together, and the volume...is impressive in its coverage. --C. W. Schneider, Trinity College (CT)
