Monitoring changes in the intertidal zone of rocky shores has never
been more critical. This sensitive habitat at the interface of land
and ocean may well be the marine equivalent of the canary in a coal
mine as we advance into an era of global climate change. This
handbook describes effective methods and procedures for monitoring
the ecological and environmental status of these areas. Written by
three collaborating authors with extensive field experience, it
provides critical discussions and evaluation of the various
sampling techniques and field procedures for studies of intertidal
macroinvertebrates, seaweeds, and seagrasses. Rather than
prescribing standard protocols or procedures, the authors break
down the decision-making process into various elements so
investigators can become aware of the advantages and disadvantages
of choosing a particular method or approach. Chapters discuss
topics such as site selection, field sampling layouts and designs,
selection of sampling units, nondestructive and destructive methods
of quantifying abundance, and methods for measuring age, growth
rates, size, structure, and reproductive condition.
