Abstract |
The 2nd Interagency Workshop on In-Situ Water-Quality Sensing: Biological Sensors, was convened at Pensacola Beach, Florida during the period April 2-30, 1980. The purpose of the workshop was to review the potential of biological mechanisms and organisms as tools for bioassay, measurement and detection of water-quality parameters, with a view toward the development of automated in-situ sensors. A total of 14 papers were presented at the workshop. They covered traditional biological measurements, organism responses as tools for detection, enzymes as tools for detection, and organisms as samplers and bioaccumulators. |
