Understanding the Impact of Anthropogenic Pollutants on Aquatic Species: A Comprehensive Guide

The increasing use of agrochemicals and other pollutants has raised global concerns about environmental contamination. These pollutants can affect food, water, and atmospheric systems, making it crucial to monitor their short and long-term effects accurately. This book provides insights into the latest aquatic species models used as indicators of the toxic effects of environmental pollutants, including models that have not been widely used.

Why This Book Matters

This book is essential for anyone interested in developing new biomarker species with high ecological relevance. It serves as a valuable resource for regulatory and research toxicologists, particularly those studying freshwater, marine water, and sediment environments. The book helps in understanding the effects of pollutants on non-target species and analyzing their impact on ecosystems.
