Transport, Persistence and Toxicity of Pollutants in the Sea

---

Transport, Persistence and Toxicity of Pollutants in the Sea, by Mauro Marini and Anna Annibaldi, examines the behavior, movement, persistence, and ecological effects of pollutants in marine environments. The book focuses on how contaminants are introduced into the sea and subsequently transported, dispersed, transformed, and accumulated through physical, chemical, and biological processes. Particular attention is given to the persistence of pollutants in marine ecosystems and the factors that determine their distribution and residence time in seawater, sediments, and marine organisms. The authors also address the toxicity of various pollutants and their potential impacts on marine organisms, ecosystems, and environmental quality. By integrating perspectives from marine science, environmental chemistry, and oceanography, the work provides an understanding of the processes governing pollutant dynamics in marine environments. Overall, the book contributes to the study of marine pollution by examining the relationship between pollutant transport, environmental persistence, and toxic effects, while highlighting the importance of monitoring and understanding contaminant behavior for effective marine environmental management.
