CO2 Acidification in Aquatic Ecosystems: An Integrative Approach to Risk Assessment focuses on the characterization of different aspects of ecosystem science to describe the situation of CO2 acidification in aquatic ecosystems. This extensive coverage looks at the effects of CO2 acidification throughout all oceans and coastal areas. In addition, the book describes integrative approaches based on global case studies to determine the effects associated with this kind of acidification. It allows the reader to understand the different sources of CO2 in the aquatic ecosystems and the different approaches and lines of evidence available to characterize the impact of this acidification. This book provides researchers, professors and post graduate students in oceanography and aquatic ecology with a new and complete tool set to address and understand the potential impacts of CO2 acidification in aquatic ecosystems.
1. Sources of CO2 acidification in aquatic ecosystems, natural versus anthropogenic
2. Risk Assessment of CO2 acidification in aquatic ecosystems based on a weight of evidence approach
3. Using the Chemical Line of Evidences to address the acidification
4. The use of toxicity tests to address the impact of acidification in aquatic ecosystems
5. Addressing the effects of CO2 acidification under ‘in situ’ conditions. Laboratory against field surveys
6. Integrating causes and effects in CO2 acidification
7. Legal and Economical consequences of anthropogenic CO2 acidification
8. The consequence of CO2 acidification in the harmful effects of emergent contaminants: illicit drugs, microplastics, etc
9. Plasticity, adaptation and other mechanisms using by organisms to live with CO2 acidification in aquatic ecosystems
10. Advance in studies of CO2 acidification in fresh water ecosystems: sources, impacts, etc.
11. Estimating the impact of CO2 acidification in a very sensible and complex system: The Cenotes, Yucatán, Mexico
Subject Areas: Applied ecology [RNC]
