Aquatic Biomes

Aquatic Biomes by Germano Leão Demolin-Leite invites readers on a vivid journey through the world’s water landscapes — from teeming coral reefs to quiet inland lakes. This authoritative yet accessible volume captures the science, beauty, and urgency of aquatic biomes, making it essential for ecology students, conservation professionals, and curious readers across the globe.

Begin with striking snapshots of marine ecosystems and freshwater habitats: coastal mangroves of Southeast Asia, the Great Barrier Reef’s coral gardens, the Amazon basin’s floodplain wetlands, Arctic seas, and Africa’s Rift Valley lakes. Clear explanations link biodiversity, nutrient cycles, and human impacts, giving readers practical insight into how ecosystems function and why they matter for local communities and global climate.

What sets this work apart is its balance of rigorous science and real-world relevance. Detailed descriptions of species interactions and habitat dynamics are paired with regional examples — Mediterranean coasts, Chesapeake Bay, Gulf of Mexico — helping readers connect big-picture ecological concepts to places they know and care about. Conservation strategies and sustainable practices are presented with clarity, equipping educators and policymakers with the language and context to make informed decisions.

Perfect for classroom use, field reference, or informed reading, Aquatic Biomes is a compelling resource for anyone interested in marine biology, freshwater ecology, or environmental stewardship.
