Resumo
Keynote points
• Most recent studies of ridge biology address chemosynthetic environments (see chap. 7P).
• Climate change models show that bathyal environments will suffer a reduction in pH, which will affect benthic communities.
• Ridges, rises, plateaux and banks are under human pressure arising from existing and potential exploitation of resources, while evidence of pollution in trenches is accumulating.
• The vulnerability of those ecosystems to human pressures has triggered both
increased societal awareness and new regulations.
