Sergio Rossi publishes the book “Oceans in Decline”
Sergio Rossi, Doctor in Marine Biology and Ecology and researcher at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology ICTA-UAB, has recently published the book “Oceans in Decline” (Springer editorial) in which he covers the well-known and not-so-known ocean problems with a holistic view of the ocean.
The autor wonders what is happening in our oceans. By describing their main elements, this book shows how and why the oceans are being transformed, and suggests possible future scenarios to address this complex, yet often-asked, question. The ocean is being dramatically transformed, but the magnitude of this transformation remains unclear since the ocean is largely inaccessible and still unknown. The author points out there is more information about the outer universe than about the deepest parts of our oceans.
In this book, Sergio Rossi offers a holistic view of our oceans. Focusing on fishing, pollution and the effects of climate change, he identifies and describes the changes occurring in all marine ecosystems, and discusses the long-passed state of equilibrium.
