Effects of Pollution on Fish
Author: Andrew J. Lawrence
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0470999683
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
The impact of pollution on fisheries and the potential health implications of eating contaminated fish are areas of considerable concern for the fishing and aquaculture communities, government bodies and the general public. Pollution, as well as over fishing, may well be contributory to recent serious declines in global fish stocks. Effects of Pollution on Fish brings together the work of many international experts each of whom have examined the literature on marine and freshwater fish and, where appropriate, invertebrates, to produce comprehensive chapters covering all major aspects of the impacts of pollution on fish and fisheries. The book describes these impacts in detail, from the molecular and sub-cellular level, through organism to population and community levels, and subsequently to socio-economic implications. The editors of this thorough and timely book have drawn together contributions encompassing molecular genetics, biochemistry, physiology, population and community biology, and fishery economics. As such, this important book will be of great use and interest to students and professionals studying and teaching in all those subject areas. Fish biologists, environmental scientists and ecotoxicologists, marine and freshwater ecologists, fisheries managers, aquaculture personnel and fish farmers, as well as fish veterinarians will all find much of great value within this book. Libraries in universities and research establishments concerned with these areas should all have copies of this book on their shelves.

Ecotoxicology
Author: Michael C. Newman
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1420005014
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 882
Book Description
A unique presentation that unifies the field, this book brings together concepts and information about contaminant effects at all levels of the biological hierarchy. Beginning at the biomolecular level, this book builds progressively toward a discussion of effects to the global biosphere. Emphasizing ecological components and fundamental paradigms, the authors strike a balance between the presentation of details relevant at each level and the integration of phenomena and processes among levels. A milestone in the field, the book is suitable for graduate courses, as well as a reference for professionals in the field.

Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Fingernail Clam (Musculium Transversum) Populations in the Upper Mississippi River

Category : Sphaeriidae (Mollusks)
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
I analyzed temporal trends in populations of the fingernail clam Musculium transversum to validate recent anecdotal observations of reductions in their abundance in the upper Mississippi River. Sufficient historical data (1973-1990) on densities of fingernail clams were obtained from regional scientists and published literature for eight navigational pools. Historical data were augmented with field data collected in 1991. Significant declines in fingernail clam populations were evident in six of the eight pools examined (Pools 2, 5, 7, 8, 9 and 19; Mann-Kendall test; p
