Fishes in Estuaries

Estuaries provide vital ecosystems for many species of fish to breed, grow, feed and migrate. In particular, these habitats are important relating to fish species that are taken commercially whilst either in the estuary, or in marine or freshwater areas at other stages of their life cycle. In addition, estuarine habitats are amongst the most threatened environments and are subject to many human impacts, for example the building of barriers, the input of pollutants, dredging for navigation and land claim for building or agriculture. This important title encompasses the work of many internationally recognised experts in the area, providing a comprehensive book that covers in detail the biology and exploitation of estuarine fishes and their habitats.

  • "This landmark publication collates information and studies on the use of estuaries, and specific habitats within them, as nursery, feeding and refuge areas, and migration routes of marine and other fish, many of which are of commercial and conservation importance. The editors and authors of the book have carefully compiled a huge wealth of information from the work of 18 organizations across 11 countries, providing a unique collection of data never before brought together within the covers of one book. Chapters within this exceptional publication cover habitat use by fishes, recruitment and pr."@en
  • "This important title encompasses the work of many internationally recognized experts in this area, culminating in a comprehensive book that provides detailed coverage of biology and exploitation of estuarine fishes and their habitats. Contents include: Recruitment processes of commercial spp. to estuaries and associated habitats, Estuarine development/habitat loss, Environmental quality of estuaries, Data analysis and interpretation. This book is a valuable reference for fish biologists, fisheries scientists and managers, consultants, environmental scientists and ecologists, marine, estuarine and freshwater biologists, libraries, and upper level students.
