Miller, D. H. AND G T. Ankley. MODELLING IMPACTS ON POPULATIONS: FATHEAD MINNOW (PIMEPHALES PROMELUS) EXPOSURE TO THE ENDOCRINE DISRUPTOR 17-B-TRENBOLONE AS A CASE STUDY. Presented at 2004 SETAC World Congress, Portland, OR, November 14-18, 2004.

Description:

Evaluation of population-level impacts is critical to ecological risk assessments. In this case study, a predictive model was developed to translate chamges in fecundity of the fathead minnow in a short term laboratory toxicity test to alterations in population growth rate. The model uniquely combines a Leslie population projection matrix and the logistic equation.
