This textbook offers a basic
understanding of aquatic ecotoxicology from molecular to physiological
levels for graduate and advanced undergraduate students. The book
covers the guidelines and lab protocols used by international
organizations for ecotoxicology studies, and discusses the challenges
faced by aquatic organisms in a changing climate from an
ecotoxicological perspective. Readers will learn about pollutants,
contaminants and chemicals of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic
environments, their impacts on environmental and human health, and what
techniques can be used to curb and control their adverse impacts. The
book will be useful for students in aquatic ecotoxicology,
environmental pollution and marine biochemistry.
