Agricultural landscapes, although often highly altered in nature, provide habitat for many
species of amphibian. However, the persistence and health of amphibian populations are …

Nutrient effluents from urban and agricultural inputs have resulted in high concentrations of
nitrate in freshwater ecosystems. Exposure to nitrate can be particularly threatening to …

Nitrate is heavily used as an agricultural fertilizer and is today a ubiquitous environmental
pollutant. Environmental endocrine effects caused by nitrate have received increasing …

Concern over global amphibian declines and possible links to agrochemical use has led to
research on the endocrine disrupting actions of agrochemicals, such as fertilizers …

To test the hypothesis that eutrophication ponds modulate some aspects of the health
responses and survival of anuran tadpoles, we conducted field experiments using Scinax …

To achieve high water-treatment efficiencies and simplify the setup of recirculating
aquaculture systems (RAS), this study examined the use of suspended growth reactors (R1 …

Background Many agricultural contaminants disrupt endocrine systems of wildlife. However,
evidence of endocrine disruption in wild amphibians living in agricultural areas has been …

Human activities present aquatic species with numerous of environmental challenges,
including excessive nutrient pollution (nitrate) and altered pH regimes (freshwater …

Nitrate is a ubiquitous aquatic pollutant that is commonly associated with eutrophication and
dead zones in estuaries around the world. At high concentrations nitrate is toxic to aquatic …

Although nitrate is a ubiquitous component of aquatic environments, and has become a
global pollutant in a variety of aquatic systems, it has only recently begun to receive attention …
