Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Harmful Algal Blooms: Environmental Factors and Molecular Mechanisms offers a genomic and ecological perspective on harmful algal blooms, or HABs. The book provides the most updated and comprehensive knowledge crucial for understanding the causes of HABs while also synthesizing foundational knowledge with recent discoveries. Written by an expert in algal molecular ecology, it blends molecular biology, physiology, and ecology to examine how harmful algae thrive on environmental conditions like climate change. After introducing historical ecological models, the book delves into the influencing factors and underlying molecular mechanisms of HABs.

Other sections explore an integrated molecular approach to incorporate energy, nutrients, defenses, and sexual reproduction (ENDs) as a resolution for HAB growth. This is an important resource for researchers and students in marine biology and ecology fields, as well as phycological and environmental studies.

Dr. Senjie Lin is a Professor of Marine Sciences at the University of Connecticut. He teaches courses on algae and the environment, marine genomics, coastal ecosystem analysis, molecular oceanography, and advanced biological oceanography. He received his MSc in Marine Biology from Xiamen University in China, and his PhD in Biological Oceanography from the State University of New York at Stony Brook (now Stony Brook University). Dr. Lin has served in the editorial boards of various journals and is currently an associate editor for Journal of Phycology and board member of ISME J, Marine Life Science and Technology, and Microorganisms. He is an elected member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering, Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), and Fellow of the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO). His contribution to the research field of phycology has been recognized through the Darbaker Prize and various awards.
