The book begins with overview discussions on the ecology, evolution, and diversity of fishes. It moves on to address freshwater, estuarine, and marine ecosystems and identifies factors that affect the distribution and abundance of fishes. It then examines the adaptations of fishes as a response to constraints posed in ecosystems. The book concludes with four chapters on applied ecology to discuss the critical issues of management, conservation, biodiversity crises, and climate change.FishesEcologyFishesConservationElectronic books.FishesEcology.FishesConservation.597Tyus Harold M.905825FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910460745003321Ecology and conservation of fishes2026031UNINA
