Description

“A Living Bay” describes the complex biological interactions among many of the marine plants and animals of Monterey Bay, including its seaweeds, seagrasses, invertebrates, marine mammals, fish and birds. We learn how these organisms reproduce, prey and defend themselves. The introduction presents basic biological concepts, while successive chapters tour the various habitats of the bay. From its beaches to the bottom of its submarine canyon (even deeper than the Grand Canyon in Arizona) the tiniest details come to life in the stunning photographs and explanatory text. Because many of the organisms discussed in this book have a wild distribution along the Pacific Coast, “A Living Bay” will appeal to marine and nature enthusiasts in general, as well as to those visiting or diving in the Monterey area. This sophisticated text will also make this book an essential reference for marine biologists and anyone fascinated by this amazing underwater world.
