Reviews on"New Horizons in Meiobenthos Research:Profiles,Patterns and Potentials"
Meiobenthology is an important component of benthology.In recent 20 years,meiobentholo-gy has advanced rapidly with the development of new methods and amazing progresses in digitization.In 2023,a book entitled as'New Horizons in Meiobenthos Research:Profiles,Patterns and Potentials'was published.It was edited by Olav Giere and Michaela Schratzberger,and over thirty authors with different backgrounds,perspectives and experiences participated writing.This book focuses on meio-fauna and attempts to address and summarize recent progresses in various fields of forthcoming impor-tance,emphasizes the role of meiofauna in the world of benthos,and seeks to outline new horizons for future meiobenthology.The content of this book is a summary of the current progresses in meioben-thology,and the prospect of the future meiobentholgy.It will play a substantial role in promoting the development and international exchanges of meiobenthology.
