This reference work is both a data source and a compendium of principles basic to the science of freshwater toxicology. The core of the ten chapters is a complex and fairly extensive review of the types of responses exhibited by aquatic indicators subjected to natural and artificial environmental pollutants. Also included are laboratory techniques for the biological evaluation of pollutants and field assessments of environmental quality. 1065 references, 89 figures, 82 tables.
