The authors describe how various sampling gears work, how to operate them, their limitations, guides on sorting and measuring collected organisms, and how to deal with subsamples of large catches. The text also explains how to use acoustic equipment for monitoring aggregations of organisms, for example fish shoals, as well as the use of sensors for registering environmental variables such as salinity, temperature, oxygen, and light.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe text contains cutting-edge research techniques that are in their final stages of development for use in research surveys. \u003ci\u003eMarine Ecological Field Methods\u003c\/i\u003e is designed to help with the entire procedure for conducting a field study, including the generation of hypotheses, planning field collection of data, conducting field work, data exploration and statistical analysis with the use of R, and presentation of results in a final report.
