Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology publishes authoritative reviews on the occurrence, effects, and fate of pesticide residues and other environmental contaminants.
That residues of pesticide and other contaminants in the total environ- ment are of concern to everyone everywhere is attested by the reception ac- corded previous volumes of "e;Residue Reviews"e; and by the gratifYing en.
Worldwide concern in scientific, industrial, and governmental com- munities over traces of toxic chemicals in foodstuffs and in both abiotic and biotic environments has justified the present triumvirate of specialized publications in this field: comprehensive reviews, rapidly published progress reports, and archival documentations.

Integrated regional models are conceptual and mathematical models that describe the physical environment, biological interactions, human decision-making, and human impact on the environment.
A bioaerosol is a colloidal suspension of liquid droplets or solid particles in air whose components contain or have attached to them one or more microorganisms.
The application of mesocosms, defined in this report as artificial 3 3 experimental enclosures ranging in size from 1 m to 10m , to address various problems in the marine sciences has been a relatively recent development.
The decision to build a nuclear power plant at Calvert Cliffs on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in southern Maryland resulted in a Iandmark legal decision (Calvert Cliffs Coordinating Committee vs Atomic Energy Commission) and began one ofthe mostintensive long-term studies ever carried out in an American estuarine system.
Development and publication of this monograph are the result of the joint efforts of Boston Edison Company and the Pilgrim Administrative Technical Committee (PATC).
The use of biotechnical processes in control of environmental pollution and in haz- ardous waste treatment is viewed as an advantageous alternative or adduct to phys- ical chemical treatment technologies.
As we enter the nineties, there is worldwide awareness that the future of all mankind is inexorably linked by the world we share, and its response to man's activities.
Contained in this volume are the proceedings of the international conference on the "e;Genetic Toxicology of Complex Mixtures,"e; held from July 4-7, 1989, in Washington, DC.
The elements in group 17 (VIlA) of the periodic table of elements-fluorine (F), chlorine (CI), bromine (Br), and iodine (I)-were designated by Berzelius as "e;halogens"e; (Greek hals, sea salt; gennao, I beget) because of their propensity to form salts.
The difficulties associated with making risk assessments on the basis of experimental results are familiar to practitioners in many fields- engineering, epidemiology, chemistry, etc.
As society has become increasingly aware of the potential threats to human health due to exposures to toxic chemicals in the environment and the workplace and in consumer products, it has placed increased demands upon the still-fledgling science of toxicology.
The articles published in this volume are based on the papers del ivered at a conference on the Role of Metal Ions in Biological Systems held November 20 and 21, 1972, at Argonne National Laboratory.
Esta celebrada Química ambiental de Colin Baird y Michael Cann proporciona a los estudiantes los fundamentos necesarios para analizar las propiedades químicas y los procesos subyacentes de todas aquellas cuestiones ambientales que se tratan a diario en los medios de comunicación: cambio climático, contaminación, biocombustibles, sostenibilidad, y muchos más.
