The first and only Alaska seaweed field guide, this book is essential for beachcombers, naturalists, teachers, students, scientists, coastal monitors, and others in need of a quick, accurate identification of seaweeds in Alaska. More than one hundred of the most common seaweed species in Alaska’s waters, as well as seagrasses and marine lichens, are fully described and illustrated with color photos on water-resistant paper.
