Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume offers an overview of the occurrence of emerging organic
contaminants in Mediterranean rivers and their relevance to their chemical and ecological
quality under water scarcity. With chapters covering the effects under multiple stress
conditions of pharmaceuticals, polar pesticides, personal care products, and industrial
chemicals, the observations presented can be applicable to other parts of the
world where water scarcity is an issue . It is of interest to environmental
chemists, ecologists, environmental engineers, and ecotoxicologists, as well as
water managers and decision-makers.
