Composed by suspension feeding organisms (e.g. corals, gorgonians, sponges, bryozoans, bivalves, etc.), MAFs constitute a vast number of marine ecosystems such as coral reefs, cold water corals, sponge grounds, bivalve beds, etc. The surface covered by these systems is prominent (at the scale of the oceans of the planet), though poorly known. In a previous book (Marine Animal Forests, the ecology of benthic biodiversity hotspots), several aspects of the MAFs were described and discussed, building the basis for a holistic approach with the aim of putting these shallow and deep sea ecosystems under a common umbrella. The main target of the present book is to identify and address important topics which were not covered in the previous three volumes. Bryozoans or Polychaeta, for example, are treated in this volume, as well as hydrothermal vents ecosystems and submarine caves, the chemical ecology in MAFs or the nursery effect on these ecosystems. The vastity of the MAF concept opens new insights in the biology, physiology, biodiversity of the organisms structuring these highly biodiverse ecosystems and on the dangers threatening them (such as microplastics or the role of invasive species as an impact of their trophic ecology or distribution). In a fast changing world, in which the complexity of MAFs is at risk, we propose an in-depth analysis of many aspects that may be inspirational for future research lines in marine biology and ecology. 000959645 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on March 15, 2021). 000959645 650_0 $$aAquatic ecology. 000959645 650_0 $$aAquatic biology. 000959645 650_0 $$aMarine organisms. 000959645 650_0 $$aBiodiversity. 000959645 650_0 $$aBiotic communities. 000959645 650_0 $$aAnimals$$vClassification. 000959645 650_0 $$aConservation biology. 000959645 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000959645 7001_ $$aRossi, Sergio,$$d1969-$$eeditor. 000959645 7001_ $$aBramanti, Lorenzo,$$eeditor. 000959645 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030570533$$z9783030570538$$w(OCoLC)1176315466 000959645 852__ $$bebk 000959645 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-57054-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000959645 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:959645$$pGLOBAL_SET 000959645 980__ $$aEBOOK 000959645 980__ $$aBIB 000959645 982__ $$aEbook 000959645 983__ $$aOnline 000959645 994__ $$a92$$bISE
