The last two decades have seen unprecedented developments in marine
science and technology. Large scale, international long-term
scientific programmes have emerged for monitoring the state of the
ocean environment and the rapid development of the offshore oil
industry has provided the technological means for a range of other
maritime developments. The purpose of this book is to review key
developments in this field. Three major themes are developed
throughout the book: the key importance of technical developments
in ocean management; the application of these developments to
specific sea uses ranging from fish farming to the deep sea
disposal of industrial waste; and the long term general issues
raised - and to some extent solved - by science and technology.
This book should be of interest to students and professionals
involved in maritime studies, oceanography, offshore engineering
and environmental science.
