Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology Volume 239
Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology attempts to provide concise, critical reviews of timely advances, philosophy and significant areas of accomplished or needed endeavor in the total field of xenobiotics, in any segment of the environment, as well as toxicological implications.
Assessment of Effects of Chemical Contaminants in Dredged Material on Marine Ecosystems and Human Health
Water, sediment, and flounder tissue were analyzed from rivers, harbors, canals, and sites along coast of the Netherlands.
Pilot Assessment of Status and Trends of Persistent Chemicals in Marine Mammals
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are present in marine mammals living in all five OSPAR Regions. Toothed‐cetaceans and some subpopulations of pinnipeds present moderate to high ranges of PCB concentrations, often surpassing the estimated toxicity thresholds for the onset of reproductive incapacity. The ranges of PCB concentrations of baleen whales are always below the estimated toxicity thresholds.
The Ecosystem of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard
This book focuses in detail on all ecologically important aspects of the Kongsfjorden system such as the marine and atmospheric environment including long-term monitoring, Ecophysiology of individual species, structure and function of the ecosystem, ecological processes and biological communities. The contributed articles include review articles and research articles that have a wider approach and bring the current research up-to-date. This book will form a baseline for future work.
Analysis of Nanoplastics and Microplastics in Food
The world’s ever increasing use of plastics has created large areas of floating plastic waste in the oceans—so-called plastic soup. This floating plastic debris is gradually fragmenting into smaller particles which eventually become microplastics, and even nanoplastics. Analysis of Nanoplastics and Microplastics in Food compiles data on nanoplastics and microplastics in food. To date, there is some data on this, particularly for the marine environment. Fish show high concentrations, but because microplastics are mostly present in the stomach and intestines, they are usually removed and consumers are not exposed. But in crustaceans and bivalve molluscs like oysters and mussels, the digest...
