Aquatic Toxicology: The Study of Chemical Effects in Water examines the impact of pollutants on aquatic organisms and ecosystems. It covers the toxicological responses of fish, invertebrates, and aquatic plants to various chemical contaminants, including pesticides, industrial effluents, and pharmaceuticals. The book emphasizes the importance of water quality monitoring and pollution control to protect aquatic life. Ideal for aquatic toxicologists and environmental scientists, it promotes strategies for maintaining healthy aquatic ecosystems.
Bentley Carson is an expert in aquatic toxicology, investigating the effects of chemical pollutants on freshwater and marine ecosystems. His research examines how contaminants like pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and industrial chemicals affect aquatic organisms and water quality. Bentley has developed advanced techniques for monitoring and assessing waterborne toxins. He has published extensively on the ecological impacts of chemical exposure in aquatic environments and strategies for remediation. As an editor, Bentley offers guidelines for toxicologists and environmental scientists to study and manage chemical pollutants in water systems, promoting sustainable aquatic health through informed toxicological assessments.
