This subject studies the effects of pollutants on organisms. This study includes (i) the analysis and detection of these effects and (ii) the prediction of the possible damage that pollutants may cause. A substantial portion of the contents is devoted to biomonitoring (i.e. using the organisms themselves to detect pollution), a tool that has become increasingly important for environmental protection and management.
