درباره این کتاب:
This book
focuses on the topic of ecotoxicology of
aquatic macrophytes and is wide ranging,
including the use of macrophytes for
remediation of contaminated sites. Many
human activities are threats to the
equilibrium of natural ecosystems.
Pollution from point and non-point sources
can be assessed using a variety of
techniques, such as biomonitoring,
biomarkers and biosensors. In aquatic
ecosystems, biomonitoring of pollutants is
mostly conducted by analysis of the
tissues of invertebrates and fishes, and
biomarker studies are also more widely
applied to animals rather than in plants.
Aquatic macrophytes occupy a key niche in
aquatic ecosystems and provide a range of
ecosystem services. In addition to their
role in primary production, vegetation
plays a key role in the cycling and
retention of nutrients and generally acts
as a sink for pollutants. Therefore,
because of their importance to aquatic
ecosystems, more attention should be paid
to understanding the fate of pollutants
and to developing methods to evaluate the
health status of macrophytic plants in
freshwater, marine and estuarine
environments.
