Volume seven of the Australasian Journal of Ecotoxicology is a special volume devoted to the new Australian and New Zealand Guidelines for Fresh and Marine Water Quality (ANZECC and ARMCANZ, 2000) (hereafter, referred to as the WQGs) and in particular, to the important advances in the water quality guidelines for protection of aquatic ecosystems. The devotion of an entire volume is appropriate ...

Electrophoretic analyses of population genetic structure, both in the laboratory and in the field, have documented significant shifts in allozyme genotype frequencies in a variety of aquatic taxa as a result of environmental impacts. Studies are documented which indicate that contaminants may select for individuals with tolerant allozyme genotypes, causing the potential loss of individuals with...

This publication is a response to book on the problems of environmental chemistry and toxicology environment, including aquatic environment ecotoxicology, which are relevant, their relevance increases over time.

Abstract The ocean faces an era of change, driven in large by the release anthropogenic CO 2 , and unprecedented entry pollutants into water column. Nanomaterials, those particles < 100 nm, represent emerging contaminant environmental concern. Research on ecotoxicology fate nanomaterials natural environment has increased substantially recent years. However, commonly such research does not co...
