About the Book
The potential impact of anthropogenic pollutants on the environment is a matter of global concern. As the use of agrochemicals and other harmful compounds increases, the contamination of food, water, and atmospheric systems becomes a serious issue. In order to combat this pollution, it is essential to accurately monitor and understand the short and long-term effects of these pollutants. This is where the book “Non-Traditional Terrestrial Species Models: Their Role in Ecological Risk Assessment and Monitoring of Environmental Pollutants” comes in.
Published by the Royal Society of Chemistry, this book is a comprehensive guide to the latest non-traditional terrestrial species models used as indicators of the toxic effects of environmental pollutants. It provides valuable insights into understanding the effects of pollutants in non-target species, enabling the analysis of their impact on ecosystems. The book is a valuable resource for regulatory and research toxicologists, particularly those interested in soil screening and the effects of pollutants on wildlife and insects.
Review of the Book
The book, edited by Marcelo L Larramendy, Diana Anderson, Michael D. Waters, Tim Marrs, and other leading experts in the field, offers a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the impact of environmental pollutants on non-traditional terrestrial species. It explores the use of biomarker species with high degrees of ecological relevance, providing insights into their role as biological indicators. By focusing on these non-traditional models, the book bridges the gap between traditional toxicology research and the need for more accurate assessment and monitoring of environmental pollutants.
One of the key strengths of this book is its interdisciplinary approach. It brings together contributions from experts in various fields, including toxicology, ecology, environmental science, and agriculture, providing a holistic view of the subject matter. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the effects of pollutants on soil ecosystems, wildlife, and insects, as well as the use of non-traditional models in soil screening.
The contributors to the book have provided in-depth analyses of their research, offering valuable insights and practical solutions for addressing the challenges posed by environmental pollution. The book not only highlights the detrimental effects of pollutants on non-traditional species but also explores potential mitigation strategies and the development of new biomarker species for accurate ecological risk assessment.
