Alasdair McIntyre
The many Census scientists who contributed to this volume dedicate it to the memory of Alasdair McIntyre, who passed away near its completion. Some of us knew him for many years, while others for only a few, but we all greatly appreciated his wisdom, wit, and perpetual curiosity. His contributions to marine science have been many and he was one of the first to propose an international study of marine biodiversity. Alasdair will be greatly missed.
