Abstract
    Environmental Oceanography: Topics and Analysis takes an active learning approach to teaching environmental oceanography by focusing on case studies, critical analysis, and math literacy. Marine environmental issues are presented in self-contained analytical exercises. Information and questions on sustainability are integrated throughout and ask students to think critically about these pressing concerns. Appropriate for a wide range of readers, this resource works well as a stand-alone text, a lab-based course book, and as a supplement to main texts in oceanography and marine science for those who would like to add an active learning focus to their course. Environmental Oceanography is sure to engage and excite readers and prompt them to think critically about the relevant environmental issues facing the oceans today.
