Biological Oceanography: An Introduction

Autor Susanne Menden-Deuer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 dec 2025
This completely updated third edition of Biological Oceanography: An Introduction offers students a firm grounding in the fundamentals of biological oceanography, continuing the work of the first and second edition author team, Carol Lalli and Timothy Parsons. Additionally, it provides an enhanced learning experience with numerous illustrations, thorough chapter summaries, and questions with answers and comments at the back of the book. The updated material now focuses on communicating the importance of the ocean for Earth’s habitability and as such, new chapters that present humanity’s dependence on the ocean are included.

This comprehensive textbook is an invaluable resource for second year and higher undergraduate students studying oceanography and marine science.


  • A revised focus on the anthropogenic impacts on oceans

Notă biografică

As a seagoing oceanographer and a professor of oceanography at the University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography whose research focuses on marine planktonic food web structure and function. She combines in-situ work in the temperate and polar ocean of primary production and phytoplankton mortality, laboratory measurements of plankton behavior and physiology, and theoretical modeling work to establish linkages between microscopic events and macroscopic phenomena. Previously, Dr. Menden-Deuer was a research fellow at Princeton University with Simon Levin and a lecturer at Western Washington University. She received her PhD in 2004 and MSc in 1998, both in oceanography at the University of Washington with Daniel Grünbaum and Evelyn Lessard, respectively. She received her first degree in 1996 from the University of Bonn, Germany, having worked with Victor Smetacek at the Alfred Wegener Institute of Polar and Marine Sciences, and spent a year at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. She has also been active in enhancing diversity and science communication in oceanography and serves on the editorial boards of oceanographic publications and the Board of Directors of the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO).
