Ecology Ecotoxicology Environmental chemistry pollutants and contaminants Ecological Impacts of Toxic Chemicals presents a comprehensive, yet readable account of the known disturbances caused by all kinds of toxic chemicals on both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Topics cover the sources of toxicants, their fate and distribution through the planet, their impacts on specific ecosystems, and their remediation by natural systems. Each chapter is written by well-known specialists in those areas, for the general public, students, and even scientists from outside this field. The book intends to raise awareness of the dangers of chemical pollution in a world dominated by industry and globalization of resources. Because the problems are widespread and far reaching, it is hoped that confronting the facts may prompt better management practices at industrial, agricultural and all levels of management, from local to governmental, so as to reduce the negative impacts of chemical contaminants on our planet. 2023-08-28T16:20:59Z 2023-08-28T16:20:59Z 2011 book ONIX_20230828_9781608051212_6 9781608051212 9781608056637 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/75863 eng application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 9781608051212.pdf https://www.eurekaselect.com/openurl/content.php?genre=book&isbn=9781608051212 Bentham Science Publishers Bentham Science Publishers 10.2174/97816080512121110101 10.2174/97816080512121110101 b544881f-7b5d-4083-a025-0a7973c3e136 9781608051212 9781608056637 Bentham Science Publishers 288 open access
