Chapters provide a comprehensive and realistic account of the world?s most hazardous organic compounds. Readers will discover a detailed account of the characteristics, potential point and non-point sources, analytical techniques and the ecotoxicological relevance of selected POPs, namely organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated phenyls (PCBs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These pollutants are of considerable interest because their exposure could cause immunologic, teratogenic and neurological problems in humans and other living beings. The book is intended to serve as a reliable and up-to-date reference source for students, teachers and researchers engaged in the field of chemical oceanography, ecotoxicology and pollution management. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Environmental Science,$x2191-5547 606 $aEcotoxicology 606 $aOrganic chemistry 606 $aWater pollution 606 $aOceanography 606 $aSedimentology 606 $aAquatic ecology  606 $aEcotoxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U25001 606 $aOrganic Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C19007 606 $aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040 606 $aOceanography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G25005 606 $aSedimentology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17080 606 $aFreshwater & Marine Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066 615 0$aEcotoxicology. 615 0$aOrganic chemistry. 615 0$aWater pollution. 615 0$aOceanography. 615 0$aSedimentology. 615 0$aAquatic ecology . 615 14$aEcotoxicology. 615 24$aOrganic Chemistry. 615 24$aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution. 615 24$aOceanography. 615 24$aSedimentology. 615 24$aFreshwater & Marine Ecology. 676 $a629.895 700 $aSarkar$b Santosh Kumar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058632 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254129903321 996 $aMarine Organic Micropollutants$92545334 997 $aUNINA
