Selenium is a naturally occurring trace element that can become
concentrated and released by industrial, agricultural,
petrochemical and mining activities. At concentrated levels it is
toxic and has polluted ecosystems around the world. This book will
serve as a comprehensive practical handbook for everyone dealing
with selenium in aquatic environments. It offers field-tested
approaches and methods for assessment and water quality management.
Using his twenty-year experience, the author discusses the effects
of selenium on fish and bird populations and presents guidelines
for identifying sources of pollution, interpreting selenium
concentrations, assessing hazardous conditions, setting water
quality criteria and ecosystem loading limits (TMDLs). He also
includes a procedure for setting environmentally safe limits that
ensure compliance with EPA regulations. Selenium Assessment in
Aquatic Ecosystems will interest field scientists, natural resource
managers, risk assessors and environmental planners.
