Sinopse

Ocean Acidification and Shellfish explores the escalating threat of increasingly acidic ocean waters on shellfish populations and marine ecosystems. With rising carbon emissions, the book examines how altered ocean pH levels directly impact shell formation, growth rates, and overall survival of various shellfish species. This decline has far-reaching consequences, affecting marine food webs, coastal communities, and aquaculture industries that rely on these creatures.

 
Focusing on the chemical processes and the biological impacts on shellfish at different life stages, the book uniquely investigates depth-related variations in acidification effects, often overlooked in other studies. It progresses from introducing the fundamentals of ocean acidification and historical trends to analyzing physiological mechanisms affecting shellfish, dedicating chapters to specific species like oysters and clams. Mitigation strategies, including reducing carbon emissions and developing resilient shellfish strains, are also discussed.

 
Drawing from diverse scientific literature and incorporating case studies, the book emphasizes the urgent need to address ocean acidification to protect marine biodiversity and ensure the sustainability of shellfish harvesting. This comprehensive analysis makes it a valuable resource for marine biologists, policymakers, and anyone concerned with environmental science and the future of our oceans.

    Echolocation

    As a series, the poems in Echolocation swing back and forth from the natural world keenly observed--rain, birds, sunflowers, even a clam-- to the contortions of the human heart, mostly caused by hurt and loss. And isn't that where the best poetry resides, between the thing and the emotion, the swan and the grief? 
    --BILLY COLLINS 
    Echolocation is a collection driven by image and figurative language-- often the simile--and Bliumis-Dunn has both power of observation and imagination which she uses to great, lovely, terrifying and always compelling effect in these vivid, near- and far-looking poems. 
    --MARTHA RHODES 
    Sally Bluimis-Dunn's spare and stunning lyrics of grief and loss restore us to the clarity, and the clear finality, of our deepest emotions. They are grave and formal while being at the same time almost unbearably human and intimate. 
    --VIJAY SESHADRI 
    Sally Bliumis-Dunn leaves the reader of Echolocation in deceptively complex verbal landscapes in which both literal and figurative language play off each other with spare yet lapidary results in poems that focus on such everyday subjects as family, animals, loss, the seasons, menopause, and disaster with a compassionate, distilling eye. The voice that emanates from these poems is quiet but deeply resonant with generous stirrings beneath. She writes with what John Keats has called "disinterestedness"--a clear-headed objectivity that combines lucid narrative with lyrical charge.
