Seminar Course for Spring 2004: Ecotoxicology What is Ecotoxicology? Ecotoxicology is the science that examines the fate and effects of toxicants in and on ecosystems. Of course, ecotoxicologists do not necessarily study at the ecosystem level. We will examine fates and effects from the organism level to the ecosystem level. We will also discuss closely related topics and disciplines. This course is intended to be an ecologically-oriented examination of the study of toxins in various environments. The science of toxicology has often examined effects of toxins and pollutants only at the molecular, cell, and organism levels. However, findings at those levels have not often been integrated to higher biological levels, nor are effects at higher levels always predictable based on findings at lower levels. Ecotoxicology attempts to integrate and study effects at multiple levels of biological organization. We will use the backdrop of current ecological and evolutionary theories to help organize the course and put toxicological findings in perspective.

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND ECOTOXICOLOGY INTRODUCTION Environmental toxicology and ecotoxicology are terms used to describe the scientific study of the adverse effects on living organisms that chemicals can have when released into the natural environment. There is a tendency to apply the term "environmental toxicology" only to the study of direct effects of environmental chemicals on human beings and the term "ecotoxicology" only to the study of the effects of chemicals on ecosystems and their nonhuman components. Human beings are not isolated from the natural environment; they are an integral part of it and have modified it by their activities. Chemicals move through the environment to reach people directly through water, the air, dust etc. and indirectly through food. Most of the world environment as we know it is the result of human interventionand hence human activities, for example in agriculture, have a profound effect on environmental transfer processes. OBJECTIVES You should be aware of the complexity of possible environmental interactions and effects. You should know what information is required to assess possible environmental and health damage.

Ecotoxicology (ECT) Description: Ecotoxicology is a sub-division of toxicology. It concentrates on the toxic effects of chemical substances on organisms, which are indicators for the degree of pollution in an ecosystem (air, soil, and water). Typical species are fish and daphnia for water, earthworms for soil and birds for air. Its aim is to reveal structural and functional changes in the ecosystems due to the effects of chemical substances.

Ecol / Ecos Research Aquatic Ecotoxicology Study Personnel: David Kreutzweiser (Research Scientist) (705) 541-5648, Scott Capell and Kevin Good (Environmental Technicians) Under the Aquatic Ecology and Ecotoxicology Study, laboratory and field-based projects are conducted to determine the effects of forest management activities and other disturbances on aquatic organisms and their environment. These include the assessment of forest pesticide effects and the impacts of forest disturbance, such as logging operations. Projects are conducted in collaboration with colleges and universities, other federal and provincial government agencies, and private industries. A primary objective is to determine how forest management activities and other forest disturbances interact with, and impact on, water resources in forest watersheds. Current research activities fall under the following themes: Forest Pesticide Effects With increased emphasis on the development of alternatives to chemical pesticides, several natural and biological materials are being tested for feasibility in forest pest management applications. We conduct experiments to determine individual- to community-level effects of these alternative pesticides on aquatic organisms and ecosystems. Lab experiments are conducted at our Aquatic Ecotoxicology Laboratory located in the Lake Superior State University Aquatic Research Laboratory (

University main page MRes Aquatic Ecotoxicology Contact details Postgraduate Admissions Faculty of Science University of Plymouth Drake Circus Plymouth PL4 8AA United Kingdom Tel: +44 (0)1752 233093 Contact email science@plymouth.ac.uk Aim of the programme This programme explores the biological effects of pollutants on aquatic organisms and applies various techniques for the monitoring of contaminants in the aquatic environment, ultimately enabling ecological hazard and risk assessment. Duration 1 year full time General programme structure Water covers approximately two-thirds of the Earth's surface and a rich diversity of animals and plants inhabit the aquatic environment. These organisms and habitats play a vital role in both human and ecosystem health and damage to our aquatic environment has severe implications. Aquatic ecotoxicology is the study of the potential effects of contaminants upon aquatic ecosystems and the importance of this expanding area is being duly recognised by industries, regulators and environmental organisations. It is an interdisciplinary subject, encompassing ecology, physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology and chemistry. Issues relating to mechanisms of uptake, bioaccumulation, detoxification and excretion in aquatic organisms are assessed to provide you with an understanding of the potential adverse effects of contaminants at different levels of biological organisation from sub-cellular to the ecosystem. At Plymouth, excellent facilities are available to support teaching and research in aquatic ecotoxicology. We have an extensive experimental aquarium and purpose-built ecotoxicology and molecular biology laboratories. Our partner institutions, including the Marine Biological Association, the Plymouth Marine Laboratory and the National Marine Aquarium, also have well-equipped laboratories for undertaking experimental work. Project work could also be carried out at other pioneer institutions eg the Centre for Environmental, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) in Weymouth or outside the UK in eg RF-Akvamiljo, Norway, with whom the University has strong collaborations.
