Sommario/riassunto |
|
The establishment of the US Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in 1983 presents the nation with an opportunity and a challenge to wisely use its diverse resources. This book assesses the state of knowledge of seafloor properties and processes as they relate to utilization of the US EEZ seabed. |
