We are guided through where and how to do this, observing samples and the basics of using microscopes, not only to view but also to photograph the creatures. The second section, comprising the bulk of the book, then takes us into the living organisms we are likely to find: from diatoms, dinoflagellates, and even fungi, through single-celled organisms to the huge array of invertebrates and chordates. The concluding third section offers a holistic view, considering ecology and the importance of understanding planktonic life while underlining the problems caused by human activity. Readers will learn:* The biology of plankton, including lifecycle, seashore and estuarine habitats, as well as classification.* Shore-based collection skills and processes: observing marine plankton, including via digital microscopes and optical microscopes, and how to sort and view samples.* Microscopic photography techniques.* How to organise and sort samples, including systematics, classification, and terminology.* Identification of planktonic organisms by group.* Details of the wider marine planktonic environment, including vertical migration, food webs, and nutrient cycles.* The interactions of plankton and humans, including microplastics, eutrophication, and climate change.Overall, this exciting book is an essential tool for any seashore enthusiast.
