Description:
Scientists from four countries presented papers at the Third Biennial International Symposium on Fish Physiology, Toxicology and Water Quality Management, which was held on the campus of Nanjing University, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, People's Republic of China. his proceedings includes 20 papers presented in sessions convened over 3 days. apers address the regulation of growth hormones in fish, the reproductive effects of anthropogenic chemicals in fish, the effects of pollutants on physiological functions in fish, and the physiological responses of rainbow trout to copper and ammonia. escriptions are provided concerning research on the effects of fenpropathrin on aquatic organisms, the bioaccumulation of organic chemicals in fish, the relationship between uptake of chemicals and oxygen consumption in fish, the toxic effects of meothrin on gill ultrastructure in grass carp, the bioaccumulation of hydrophobic organics in foodwebs, the monitoring of industrial effluents in Nanjing, the investigations of fish deaths in Lake Xuanwu, and the rehabilitation of streams degraded by mining wastes. resentations also covered nonpoint sources and water quality, conversion of municipal wastewater into resources, modeling of toxic chemicals in the Yangize River, regional water pollution control in rural China, adsorption of organic pollutants on soils and sediments, heavy metal speciation modeling on the Le An River, and uncertainty analysis using the QUAL2E model.
