Book Description:
|
There is currently limited research on the physiological effects of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). Of the research on organismal effects, almost the entirety of it is based on laboratory studies leaving a large data gap on observed environmental effects. Recent conservation efforts for lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) using streamside rearing facilities (SRFs) offers an applied field-based situation for investigating the relationship between CECs and a managed species of interest.
