Though not immediately perceived the ocean is highly structured and fronts are one of the most important components of its structural complexity. Marine fronts have been known since the early 20th Century, however, the more recent availability of high resolution satellite imagery, field measurements and numerical simulations have greatly advanced our understanding of their ecological impact. This work touches on topics such as front types, its biology and its comparisons with other bounderies at sea, as well as comparisons of fronts with terrestrial boundaries and the ℓ́ℓecotoneℓ́ℓ concept. Furthermore, it also looks at the management and conservation of marine life. 000725726 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 25, 2015). 000725726 650_0 $$aMarine ecology. 000725726 650_0 $$aOcean circulation. 000725726 650_0 $$aWater masses. 000725726 7001_ $$aAcha, Eduardo Marcelo,$$eauthor. 000725726 7001_ $$aPiola, Alberto R.,$$eauthor. 000725726 7001_ $$aIribarne, Oscar,$$eauthor. 000725726 7001_ $$aMianzan, Hermes,$$eauthor. 000725726 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319154787 000725726 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in environmental science. 000725726 852__ $$bebk 000725726 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-15479-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000725726 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:725726$$pGLOBAL_SET 000725726 980__ $$aEBOOK 000725726 980__ $$aBIB 000725726 982__ $$aEbook 000725726 983__ $$aOnline 000725726 994__ $$a92$$bISE
