| The Taxonomy of Economic Seaweeds, Vol. I-VIII contain the results of a series of workshops held from 1984 to 1999 and attended by a group of international specialists in the field of marine algae. The rationale behind the first workshop in 1984 was that progress in seaweed aquaculture and marine natural products chemistry would require a better understanding of commercially interesting species.
In these times of accelerated loss of habitat and biodiversity, the workshops have had the added benefit of providing lasting records of many species, including drawings and photos. They have also provided a forum at which algal specialists could work together on common regional and international problems. |
