内容説明
'Erich Hoyt's handbook is an admirable, timely and highly welcome contribution' - Michael Stachowitsch, "Marine Ecology". What does it mean to save the whales if their habitat is left unprotected? "Marine Protected Areas for Whales, Dolphins and Porpoises" is the definitive handbook on this pressing issue and the first to bridge the gap between the disciplines of marine protected areas and cetacean conservation. It launches a new chapter in cetacean conservation with its investigation into the crucial habitat needs and protection requirements of some 84 species. The author, one of the world's foremost experts in this field, takes you around the world to investigate the promising results of the latest conservation research and the strategies for obtaining marine protected areas in coastal waters and on the high seas, using national legislation and regional and international conventions. This is an essential introduction, guide and reference work for those working to ensure a future for whales and dolphins.
