  • Evolutionary Physiology of Algae and Aquatic Plants

    Edited by Mario Giordano, John Beardall, John A. Raven, Stephen C. Maberly ...
    Photosynthetic organisms have an enormous influence on our environment through their effects on the development of other life on Earth and the way they alter the planet's geology and geochemistry. This book takes a unique approach by examining the evolutionary history of the major groups of aquatic photoautotrophs in the context of the ecophysiological characteristics that have allowed them to ...

  • Blue Planet, Red and Green Photosynthesis

    Productivity and Carbon Cycling in Aquatic Ecosystems

    Edited by Stephen Christopher Maberly, Brigitte Gontero ...
    This book describes the mechanisms that allow aquatic photosynthetic organisms to contribute about half of the global primary productivity; in order to mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon dioxide and producing oxygen, they transform the original anoxic atmosphere of the Earth over geological time. Aquatic photosynthesis is performed by a wide diversity of organisms, predominantly ... Read more
