Publisher's Synopsis
Monitoring the emerging rate of pollution and transmission of multiple life-threatening pathogens and pollutants via aquatic ecosystems is critical for the planet. As about 71 % of earth's surface is covered with water and 96.5 % of it comes from marine ecosystem, therefore it is unequivocally safe to state that any threat to marine ecosystem would directly and inherently influence the survivability of any species on earth. Sustainable development of human species would be challenging if the current and upcoming challenges and threats towards marine ecosystem are not addressed in due time. This book presents a comprehensive and concise perspective on the current status and possible advances in sensors for the sustainability of marine ecosystem and welfare of co-dependent organisms including humans. The book will be reference material for scientists and researchers as well as students working in the fields of sensors, environmental monitoring, marine ecosystem, bioremediation technology and marine biology. It serves as a one-time resource for recent advances in the field of application of sensors in marine bioscience and various sensors-based applications.
