Ecotoxicology
A section of Toxics (ISSN 2305-6304).
Section Information
The Ecotoxicology section is focused on new findings, communications, and opinions about the various aspects of environmental toxicology and chemical stress ecology of toxic chemicals. This section invites the submission of manuscripts that report novel and high-impact investigations into the effects of toxic chemicals on the aquatic and terrestrial environment, including, but not limited to, studies investigating the interactions between chemicals and biological and ecological processes and studies exploring the effects of chemicals at higher levels of biological organizations. Reviews and viewpoint papers are also an integral part of this section.
