Geography of Minerals of the Oceans

The biotic and abiotic resources of land are being exploited at a rate where their reserves will not last very long. The sea, in near future, would become increasingly significant source of minerals and energy. This has been possible due to the technical advancement in the exploration and exploitation of the resources of the seas.
The volume describes the geography of oceans, geography of biotic and abiotic resources and minerals of ocean and exploitation of ocean minerals by the developed countries and efforts of India in exploitation of minerals and resources at Antarctica. It also throws light on the ocean and mineral trade routes.
The study will go a long way in making the littoral countries aware of the sea wealth. This should prove of values to all those engaged in the field of geography, geology and oceanography
