(3 units). Explores the challenges of moving from testing toxic chemicals on single organisms in the laboratory to assessing the effects of toxic chemicals on ecosystems. The influence of food chain processes, photochemistry, and other natural processes (sedimentation, volatilization, etc) will be discussed. Course Component: Lecture Prerequisites: BIO 1140, BIO 2129.
