... Amoebae are delicate and net sampling often destroys them before they can be isolated. Moreover, amoebae must attach to a surface to feed, thus only particle-rich plankton is likely to support detectable populations of amoebae (e.g. Anderson 2011).

Marine conservation



Marine conservation, also known as marine resources conservation, is the protection and preservation of ecosystems in oceans and seas. Marine conservation focuses on limiting human-caused damage to marine ecosystems, and on restoring damaged marine ecosystems. Marine conservation also focuses on preserving vulnerable marine species.
