Aquatic Food Webs in the Anthropocene: Impact of Stressors of Emerging Concern addresses a variety of anthropogenic factors and their impacts on aquatic food webs. It provides readers with an overview of cutting-edge research on known and emerging anthropogenic drivers of trophic transfers in aquatic ecosystems, bringing diverse topics together to offer new perspectives on food web dynamics. Each chapter has been written by a leading expert on the pollutant or stressor in question, ensuring global coverage of emerging contaminants, light pollution, pesticides, wastewater, brownification, salinization, changing temperatures, invasive species, and their relative impacts to aquatic food webs. The concluding chapter discusses the applications of emerging research covered in this work, including the potential for effective resource management and restoration of food webs under stress. Aquatic Food Webs in the Anthropocene: Impact of Stressors of Emerging Concern provides a critical reflection on current knowledge of how anthropogenic drivers affect aquatic food webs. It is a unique resource for researchers, academics, and the wider set of stakeholders that deal with aquatic community ecology. This book is an indispensable “go-to” resource for those who would like to develop and refresh their knowledge on aquatic ecology and food web dynamics and drivers.

Dr. Mirco Bundschuh is Junior Professor of Functional Aquatic Ecotoxicology at RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau (formerly University Koblenz-Landau). He obtained his BA and PhD in Environmental Sciences from University of Koblenz-Landau, and his research focuses on chemical stressors and their effects on aquatic species and ecosystems. Dr. Bundschuh is President of SETAC (Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry) Europe, Editor of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), and Associate Editor of the Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (Springer).
