Bailey, Anne B. Hollowed and Warren S. Wooster -- A fresh (water) perspective on the impacts of the NAO on North Atlantic ecology / Dietmar Straile -- A freshwater perspective on climate variability and its effect on marine ecosystems / Dag O. Hessen -- Time lags in terrestrial and marine environments / Eric Post -- The impacts of ENSO on terrestrial ecosystems : a comparison with NAO / Mauricio Lima and Fabian M.

Summary: Survival, growth and distribution of marine organisms are highly influenced by climate variability. Marine biodiversity is threatened by the combined forces of harvesting, pollution and climate change. In this book, contributors summarize current knowledge of how climate affects marine ecosystems, focusing on the North Atlantic.
