Using examples from all over the world, this introduction to temperate rocky shores describes the physical factors that affect the organisms, the biology of the animals and plants that live on the shore, the factors that control them, and the communities they form. Examples of observations or experimental work for field courses are provided, and the problems of pollution and conservation in the context of effects on biodiversity are considered.
'... this is a useful volume for those working in the rocky shore habitat - it well fulfils the aim of the series.' John Grahame, Journal of Animal Ecology, 1997, 66
