This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. Environmental
chemistry is an interdisciplinary field of study that involves the
science of ecology as well as chemistry. Environmental chemistry
covers the basic chemistry and biochemistry that occur naturally in
the world around us. It focuses on the air, water, and land.
Environmental science normally begins by determining the chemical
reactions that are occurring in the environment when all systems
are in balance and then goes on the discover how chemistry has
changed when there is an imbalance caused by stress or pollution.
The field is constantly changing, with new discoveries being made
all the time. The availability of new and more sensitive
instruments in analytical science is enabling the detection of
smaller and smaller concentrations of pollutants in the
environment. This new volume deals with a host of important topics
in environmental chemistry, such as pesticide-related illnesses in
humans and plants, the effects of litterfall in the soil of
tropical forests, toxicants in various bodies of water, and much
more.
This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. Fisheries
management and conservation draws on fisheries science in order to
find ways to protect fishery resources so sustainable exploitation
is possible. Modern fisheries management often involves regulating
when, where, how, and how much fishermen are allowed to harvest to
ensure that there will be fish in the future. This work on
fisheries management and conservation covers a broad array of
chapters on this field of growing importance. It includes chapters
on illegal fishing, recovery of endangered fish, effective
management of fisheries, fish invasions in river systems, selection
of fishing areas, fish invasions, conservation efforts, and much
more.
This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. Environmental
science integrates physical and biological sciences to the study of
the environment, with the goal of solving today's environmental
challenges. Many of these challenges tie into a greater concept of
using the earth's resources sustainably. This collection brings
together some very important advances in environmental science,
including how climate change affects plant disease, how to keep
birds and bats away from wind turbines, disinfecting polluted water
for drinking, how climate policy impacts natural habitats, cancer
risk due to ecological issues, and much more.
This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. A
multidisciplinary subject, the study of fisheries science includes
the biological study of life, habits, and breeding of various
species of fish. It also involves farming and husbandry of
important fishes and aquatic organisms in fresh water, brackish
water and any marine environment. This new book includes a
selection of topics in the field, such as the impact of climate
change on tropical fish, studies on the reproductive and mating
habits of specific fish, hibernation of Antarctic fish, the
molecular makeup of specific fish, and more.
