Special Issue on Marine Ecology
Marine Ecology is focused on how organisms interact with each other and the environment. It is the main branch of ecology, but also marine biology. As 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by the ocean, it constitutes a complex three-dimensional world. There are a large proportion of life exists in the ocean, but how large the proportion is still unknown, and many species are still to be discovered. With new discoveries being made nearly every day, the human body of knowledge regarding marine biodiversity and ecosystem is rapidly growing. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and development in the area of marine ecology.
In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring marine ecology. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Propagation, growth, distribution and quantity of marine organisms
-
Ecological impact of earth's climate
-
Widespread plant and algae
-
Marine habitats and ocean currents
-
Exploration of marine biotechnology
-
Marine community ecology
-
Economical importance of marine organisms for human
