Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. "Physiological Responses of Marine Biota to Pollutants" is an important work edited by F. John Vernberg, Anthony Calabrese, Frederick P. Thurberg, and Winona B. Vernberg. This hardcover edition, though in Good condition, is ex-library and comes with stamps and markings, including a card pocket in the back of the book. Despite its library history, it retains its quality. While it does not include a jacket, the covers are still in great shape, with some expected shelf wear, rubbing, and soiling.The book is an essential resource for those interested in the physiological effects of pollutants on marine organisms. It contains the proceedings of a symposium titled "Pollution and Physiology of Marine Organisms," which took place in Connecticut in November 1975. The symposium delves into the impact of various pollutants, such as pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), petroleum products, and heavy metals, on the physiology of marine species. These species include fish, crabs, shrimps, lobsters, and mussels. The content explores the functional mechanisms underlying the responses of marine organisms to pollutants, whether acting alone or in combination with other pollutants and environmental factors. This volume is divided into five parts with a total of 27 chapters. It starts by examining the effects of pesticides and PCBs on marine organisms. For example, it discusses the influence of malathion on crab development and the effects of PCBs on feral fish.The book continues to cover heavy metals, including methylmercury, selenium, cadmium, cadmium chloride, and chromium. It provides insights into how petroleum hydrocarbons affect various marine species, from fish embryos to plankton. Additionally, it addresses topics like the synergistic effects of temperature and chlorine on young estuarine fishes, the impact of DDT and mirex on Adinia xenica, and the role of temperature in the physiology of bivalves.This volume will be a valuable resource for marine scientists, ecologists, and students interested in the effects of pollutants on marine life. Despite being ex-library, it is still a meticulously compiled work that offers substantial insights into the subject matter. Rest assured, it will be carefully packaged to ensure its safe delivery. Additionally, a USPS electronic tracking number will be provided at no extra cost. If you require further information or additional images of the book, please don't hesitate to contact us.…
