Oceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review remains one of the most cited sources in marine science and oceanography. The ever-increasing interest in work in oceanography and marine biology and its relevance to global environmental issues, especially global climate change and its impacts, creates a demand for authoritative refereed reviews summarising and synthesising the results of both...

Biography

Peter A. Todd is Associate Professor in the Experimental Marine Ecology Lab at the National University of Singapore. He is an experimental marine ecologist who focusses on organism-environment interactions in nearshore waters, especially those close to urban centres. In both his curiosity-driven and translational work, he emphasises the design, build, implementation, and analysis of high-quality novel experiments. His research generates large quantities of new information and the great majority of my publications are data-based. He is fundamentally concerned with increasing understanding of the ecology and functioning of tropical coastal marine organisms and communities.

Bayden D. Russell is an Associate Director of the Swire Institute of Marine Science at the University of Hong Kong. His research seeks to understand the impact of climate change on ecosystem function, the biology of key species, and how best to manage and conserve ecosystems in this context. He also investigates the human relationship with, and dependence on, marine ecosystems and how these can be made sustainable through habitat restoration and development of multi-trophic aquaculture.
