Numerous poisonings of people and animals with highly toxic anthropogenic Hg and Cd in the 20th century prompted the creation of the abiotic environment, mainly in developed countries. However, the system is insufficient for long-term exposure to low concentrations of various substances that are mainly ingested through food and water. This problem could be addressed by the monitoring of sentinels ? organisms that accumulate trace elements and as such reflect the rate and degree of environmental pollution. Usually these are long-lived vertebrates ? herbivorous, omnivorous and carnivorous birds and mammals, especially game species. This book describes the responses of the sentinels most commonly used in ecotoxicological studies to 17 trace elements. 606 $aEcotoxicology 606 $aEnvironmental monitoring 606 $aEnvironmental pollution 606 $aEcotoxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U25001 606 $aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U1400X 606 $aTerrestrial Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35030 615 0$aEcotoxicology. 615 0$aEnvironmental monitoring. 615 0$aEnvironmental pollution. 615 14$aEcotoxicology. 615 24$aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis. 615 24$aTerrestrial Pollution. 676 $a333.8 676 $a572.515 702 $aKalisi?ska$b El?bieta$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337913803321 996 $aMammals and Birds as Bioindicators of Trace Element Contaminations in Terrestrial Environments$92294566 997 $aUNINA
