OverviewOceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review remains one of the most cited sources in marine science and oceanography. The ever-increasing interest in work in oceanography and marine biology and its relevance to global environmental issues, especially global climate change and its impacts, creates a demand for authoritative refereed reviews summarising and synthesising the results of both historical and recent research. If you are interested in submitting a review for consideration for publication in OMBAR, please email the new co-Editors in Chief, Dr Peter Todd (dbspat@nus.edu.sg) and Dr Bayden Russell (brussell@hku.hk). Supplementary material is provided online on the Support Materials tab, for Reviews 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Volume 62 features a review of the biology, ecology and conservation threats to the Iberian harbour porpoise; a look at the potential risk to Mediterranean cetaceans and sea turtles from floating marine macro litter; an overview of the recent history and physical environment of corals in the Andaman Sea; an exploration of the population biology of Snapper fish in South Australia; and a review of historical killings of small cetaceans in the Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea, among others. An international Editorial Board ensures global relevance and expert peer review, with editors from Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, Singapore and the UK. The series volumes find a place in the libraries of not only marine laboratories and oceanographic institutes but also universities worldwide. Chapters 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9 of this volume are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

Importance of sublethal predation in sedentary megafaunal and macrofaunal assemblages in soft sediments 9. An integrated phylogenomic approach for potential host-associated evolution of monstrilloid copepods 10. Potential risk of floating marine litter to cetaceans and sea turtles: A review of spatial risk exposure assessments.ReviewsAuthor InformationPeter A. Todd is Associate Professor in the Experimental Marine Ecology Lab at the National University of Singapore. He is an experimental marine ecologist who focusses on organism-environment interactions in nearshore waters, especially those close to urban centres. In both his curiosity-driven and translational work, he emphasises the design, build, implementation, and analysis of high-quality novel experiments. His research generates large quantities of new information and the great majority of my publications are data-based. He is fundamentally concerned with increasing understanding of the ecology and functioning of tropical coastal marine organisms and communities. Bayden D. Russell is an Associate Director of the Swire Institute of Marine Science at the University of Hong Kong. His research seeks to understand the impact of climate change on ecosystem function, the biology of key species, and how best to manage and conserve ecosystems in this context. He also investigates the human relationship with, and dependence on, marine ecosystems and how these can be made sustainable through habitat restoration and development of multi-trophic aquaculture.
