Here you’ll find the list of references for Saltwater: A Natural History of the Sea.

References and Further Reading
It’s of primary importance to me that I do everything possible to ensure the information that I provide in Saltwater is as accurate as possible. To do this, I consulted quite a few scientific papers and reports, which I cite below on a chapter-by-chapter basis.
Some wonderful books have been written about the sea and about marine life, and as further reading, I’d recommend James Bradley’s Deep Water, Helen Czerski’s Blue Machine, Charles Clover’s Rewilding the Sea, David Abulafia’s The Boundless Sea, Helen Scales’ What the Sea Can Be and Adam Nicholson’s The Seabird’s Cry
