This book focuses on the effects of industrial effluents,
specifically those generated from tanneries, on aquatic life i.e.
fish. Readers will learn about the impacts of untreated effluents
that find its way into potable water bodies, rivers and lakes. A
detailed analysis of the morphological and reproductive responses
of fish to Chromium VI, a carcinogen and hazardous metal, will be
provided. Particular attention is given to the effects of these
effluents on the guppy, a fish used for the biological control of
malaria. Students and researchers in environmental science,
biology, ecology, marine and freshwater sciences will find the book
most appealing. Freshwater ecologists working in the field and
managers responsible for the protection and monitoring of natural
areas will also find this book interesting.
