"New Zealand has jurisdiction over the world's fourth largest Exclusive Economic Zone [. . .]By weight, about four-fifths of fish caught withing the New Zealand EEZ are deep-water species, and over the past few decades the harvesting of deep-sea fishes has contributed billions of dollars to the New Zealand economy [. . .] Despite its size, the deep sea need to be looked after. Scientists predict that deep-sea habitats are more vulnerable to long-term damage from human impacts than coastal habitats. Deep-water organisms generally grow more slowly than their shallow-water counterparts. This means that recovery times after disturbance are much longer, and in some cases could be hundreds of years." - from the Foreword by Hon. Peter Hodgson (Minister of Fisheries).

Descrizione libro Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. Kim Westerskov (Photos) (illustratore). 1st Edition. This copy is signed by Peter Batson on the half title page. A very close to fine copy with the most stunning colour photographic images throughout. New Zealand lays claim to one of the largest deep-ocean territories in the world. In this book we encounter creatures so alien in appearance that they might have been spawned in the mind of a science fiction writer. Deep New Zealand examines the entire spectrum of ocean life, from microscopic plankton to the great whales, and also devotes chapters to marine geology, ecology and exploration. Signed by Author(s).
