Species' response to climate change depends on their exposition, sensitivity and ability to adapt to novel climates. Exposure to climate change is however uneven within species' range, so that some populations may be more at risk than others. Identifying the regions most exposed to climate chang...

متن کاملMeasurement of Metabolites as Indicators of Exposure to Chemicals
Many chemicals to which animals or plants are exposed undergo metabolism prior to storage in, or excretion by, the organism. In some cases, measurement of the levels of metabolites in tissues or excretion products can be used as an indicator of exposure to such chemicals. Measurement of metabolites as a means of monitoring exposure may be especially valuable when practical difficulties exist in...
