During the recent decades, social, political and academic
endeavours have been made to improve environmental quality and
reduce pollution. In particular, the ocean, sea and coastal areas
show varying degrees of impact from the multiple human activities
carried out in the terrestrial as well as in the aquatic
environment. Ecology is a science which studies the relationship
between organisms and the surrounding environment and in the modern
era, the marine world is getting increasing attention. For
centuries it has been the final reservoir of human garbage; later
it became an oil farm with a concomitant increase of coastal
population growth and unplanned growth of the fishing industry and
the increasing use of sea routes for cargo transport and
recreational uses (cruises). All this led to rising contamination
with negative effects on biota and even human health. It is then
imperative to know the current situation of the world's oceans:
that is the main purpose of this book, to document at a glance the
latest research in the field of ocean pollution.
