Jellyfish form spectacular population blooms and there is
compelling evidence that jellyfish blooms are becoming more
frequent and widespread. Blooms have enormous ecological, economic,
and social impacts. For example, they have been implicated in the
decline of commercial fisheries, they block the cooling water
intakes of coastal industries and ships, and reduce the amenity of
coastal waters for tourists. Blooms may be caused by overfishing,
climate change, and coastal pollution, which all affect coastal
waters around the world.Jellyfish Blooms: Causes, Consequences and
Recent Advances presents reviews and original research articles
written by the world 's leading experts on jellyfish. Topics
covered include the evolution of jellyfish blooms, the impacts of
climate change on jellyfish populations, advances in acoustic and
molecular methods used to study jellyfish, the role of jellyfish in
food webs and nutrient cycles, and the ecology of the benthic
stages of the jellyfish life history. This is a valuable resource
for students and professional marine biologists, fisheries
scientists, oceanographers, and researchers of climate change.
