Book Description
- The population context for ecotoxicology
- Epidemiology of noninfectious disease in populations
- Population dynamics and demography
- Translating individual effects to population effects using energy allocation theory and phenotypic plasticity
- Toxicant-related natural selection
- The effect of toxicants on the genetic qualities of populations
The Hierarchical Ecotoxicology Series is a sequence of five books designed to bridge a widening gap between general ecotoxicology textbooks and highly specialized books. Each book in the series focuses on one level of biological organization at a time, highlighting key concepts and defining important connections between levels of organization. Identification and discussion of ecotoxicological paradigms form the backbone of each book.
