Abstract

This volume provides information that helps investigators unravel the relationships between exposure to environmental stressors (e.g., climate change, pollutants, marine litter, pathogens and biotoxins) and a range of endpoints in marine mammal species. The application of robust examination procedures and biochemical, immunological, and molecular techniques, combined with pathological examination and feeding ecology, has led to the development of health assessment methods at the individual and population levels in wild marine mammals.Provides a comprehensive, worldwide update and state of knowledge on current research and topics on marine mammal ecotoxicologyIncludes coverage of both new and emerging technologiesFeatures a multidisciplinary approach that gives readers a broad, updated overview of the threats facing marine mammals and related conservation measures
