Although several published books provide an in-depth coverage of Ecotoxicology, none of these books cover the topic exhaustively due to its amplitude. Nonetheless, most of these books are capable to transmit to an interested reader the “essence of Ecotoxicology”. Likewise, this book does not attempt to provide an in-depth coverage of each of the Ecotoxicology facets, of which there are many. Instead, we opted to provide readers with a diverse array of practical questions faced and addressed on a daily basis by ecotoxicologists from different parts of the world. In doing so, we hope to transmit the same essence and to provide fresh perspectives on key issues of Ecotoxicology. Our goal would not be fulfilled if we had not provided the authors of each chapter, to whom we are deeply grateful, the freedom to express their personal points of view. Finally, we strongly encourage each of you to read the seminal paper from René Truhaut entitled “Ecotoxicology: Objectives, Principles and Perspectives” (Ecotoxicol. Environ. Saf. 1977, 1: 151–173), which marks the formal establishment of Ecotoxicology as an independent area of investigation. Rachel Ann Hauser-Davis Thiago Estevam Parente Contents Preface v 1.

Rachel Ann Hauser-Davis Introduction Anthropogenic activities are increasingly causing significant impacts on the aquatic environment, leading to several changes in their ecological processes. The relationship between the health of these environments, anthropogenic activities and public health is already a consensus; however, the mechanisms involved are not yet fully known due to their complexity (Andersen 1997, Fleming and Laws 2006, Moura et al. 2011, NRC 1999). Among the many important aspects concerning human health, aquatic environment represents a significant source of water, biomass and oxygen production and biological diversity, and the quality of these ecosystems is indispensable for the maintenance of the planet and public health (Moura et al. 2011, NRC 1999, Sandifer et al. 2004). Unfortunately, anthropogenic activities have led to several negative impacts on these ecosystems, such as habitat destruction and the consequent extinction of several species, changes in sedimentation rates, mobilization of different contaminants (Andersen 1997), diseases in the human population due to chemical pollutants (Bassil et al. 2007, Dhillon et al. 2008) and infectious agents present in marine hosts, including bacterial, viral and protozoan agents (Santos et al. 2017), with repercussions on socioeconomic and cultural activities and, finally, on public health (Fleming and Laws 2006, PNUMA 2004).
