The Mediterranean Sea
This volume represents a practical survey of current understanding of chemical contamination of the Mediterranean Sea. Beginning with an overview of the general physical and socio-economic context, the author reviews the exploration of processes governing the fate of chemicals, assesses the budget of both inorganic and organic contaminants, and describes new tools for studying the impact of pollution on the Mediterranean.
Fluxes between Trophic Levels and through the Water-Sediment Interface
Proceedings of the Joint Congress of Limnology and Oceanography held in Marseilles, June 26-29, 1989
The Mediterranean Sea
Over the last century, the Mediterranean Sea has experienced significant alterations due to natural processes and human activities. Some key changes include sea level rise, temperature changes, salinity fluctuations, circulation patterns, erosion and sedimentation, loss of biodiversity, pollution, and overfishing, etc. It's important to note that while many of these alterations are driven by natural processes, human activities have accelerated and exacerbated these changes. Addressing these issues requires concerted global efforts to mitigate climate change, reduce pollution, and promote sustainable management of natural resources.

Oil in the Sea
This comprehensive volume follows up and expands on an earlier National Academy of Sciences book. It is the result of an intensive multidisciplinary effort to assess the problems relating to petroleum-derived hydrocarbons in the marine environment. Specifically, it examines the inputs, analytical methods, fates, and effects of petroleum in the marine environment. The section on effects has been expanded significantly, reflecting the extensive scientific effort put forth in determining the effects of petroleum on marine organisms. Other topics discussed include petroleum contamination in specific geographical areas, the potential hazards of this contamination to human health, the impact of oil-related activities in the northern Gulf of Mexico, and the potential impact of petroleum on fisheries.
Occupational Exposure Management at Nuclear Power Plants
The symposium was organised in order to provide a global forum to promote the exchange of ideas and management approaches to maintaining occupational radiation exposures "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA).
Biodegradation of Toxic and Hazardous Chemicals
This timely reference book discusses the biotechnological applications of microorganisms as a crucial solution for the sustainable management of different types of toxic pollutants. It reviews the sustainable biodegradation approach and resource recovery for different kinds of pollutants like plastic wastes, pharmaceutical wastes, pesticides, and textile industry wastes. The book provides an understanding of biotechnology-based interventions toward a zero-waste route. KEY FEATURES Provides a deep understanding of biodegradation of toxic pollutants from industries ranging from textiles to pharmaceuticals Presents novel technologies for the sustainable treatment of environmental pollution Revi...
