The proposed book features a systematic and thorough treatment of
the dominant persistent organic pollutants (POP's) encountered in
the tropical marine environment of the Indian Sundarban mangrove
wetlands, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Chapters provide a
comprehensive and realistic account of the world's most hazardous
organic compounds. Readers will discover a detailed account of the
characteristics, potential point and non-point sources, analytical
techniques and the ecotoxicological relevance of selected POPs,
namely organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated phenyls (PCBs),
and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These pollutants are
of considerable interest because their exposure could cause
immunologic, teratogenic and neurological problems in humans and
other living beings. The book is intended to serve as a reliable
and up-to-date reference source for students, teachers and
researchers engaged in the field of chemical oceanography,
ecotoxicology and pollution management.
