A thorough understanding of planktonic organisms is the first step towards a real appreciation of the diversity, biology, and ecological importance of marine life. A detailed knowledge of their distribution and community composition is particularly important since these organisms are often very delicate and sensitive to change, and can be used as early indicators of environmental change. Natural and man-induced modification of the environment can affect both the distribution and composition of plankton, with important ecological and economic impacts. Marine Plankton provides a practical guide to plankton biology with a large geographic coverage spanning the North Sea to the north-eastern Atlantic coast of the USA and Canada. The book is divided into three sections: an overview of plankton ecology, an assessment of methodology in plankton research covering sampling, preservation, and counting of samples, and a taxonomic guide richly illustrated with detailed line drawings to aid identification. This is an essential reference text suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in marine ecology (particularly useful for fieldwork) as well as for professional marine biologists. It will also be of relevance and use to environmental scientists, conservation biologists, marine resource managers, environmental consultants, and other specialised practitioners.

The present book is designed for acquiring a basic knowledge on marine and estuarine phytoplankton and zooplankton, which are tiny free-floating biotic components of the aquatic ecosystem. These drifting biological chips of the aquatic system play an important role in maintaining the global carbon cycle and also in spinning the marine food web. It is well known that phytoplankton are the source of fossil fuels, and form the foundation stone of world fishery. However, phytoplankton sometimes causes adverse impact on the marine and estuarine environments. Toxic phytoplankton, when consumed by shellfish or other species often affect the marine food chain including poisoning of sea birds, mammals and even human. Recent internet reference (http://oceanlink.island.net/ask/pollution.html) has revealed that phytoplankton into the atmosphere. This compound can transform into sulphuric acid and eventually may contribute to acid rain. The zooplankton occupy the tier next to phytoplankton in the marine food web and form important linkage between the primary and secondary production of the oceans. The present book has focussed on the habitat, taxonomy and ecological role played by the planktonic community in the marine and estuarine compartments. This book can enrich the knowledge of the students on marine ecosystem, the process of sampling, preservation and diversity study of planktonic species in the saline environment. Some case studies have been given highlighting the diversity of plankton in the northwestern Bay of Bengal. Annotated suggested references and internet references have been added at the back of each chapter for those students interested in pursuing further information on this particular branch of environmental science. Contents Chapter 1: Marine and Estuarine Plankton: An Overview, Habitat of marine and estuarine plankton, Importance of phytoplankton and zooplankton; Chapter 2: Marine and Estuarine Plankton: Classification and Types, Classification of marine and estuarine phytoplankton, Classification of marine and estuarine zooplankton; Chapter 3: Sampling and Storing of Plankton, Sampling and preservation, Computation of ecological indices from the plankton community; Chapter 4: Plankton Spectrum of Northwestern Bay of Bengal, Common phytoplankton of northwestern Bay of Bengal, Common zooplankton of northwestern Bay of Bengal; Chapter 5: Role of Natural Processes on Plankton Community, Effect of Upwelling and El Nino on marine plankton, Impact of monsoon on marine plankton; Chapter 6: Plankton Culture, Phytoplankton culture, Zooplankton culture.

The marine phytoplankton, the microalgae make up a quarter of all vegetation on the planet and could be the oldest known basic food source in the seas and oceans. The marine zooplankton, on the other hand are the initial prey items for almost all fish larvae. Most of the marine fishes and associated fisheries rely largely on the density and distribution of zooplankton. This comprehensive publication deals with all methods of studying marine phytoplankton and zooplankton including their identification. It is hoped that this publication, first of its kind would be of great use for the students and researchers of disciplines such as Fisheries Science, Marine Biology, Aquatic Biology and Fisheries and Zoology besides serving as a standard reference for other Biology-related faculties.
