Quantifying metal toxicity in a key soil sentinel organism

This book engulfs practical and computational aspects of metal toxicity in earthworms, with a specific focus on metal bioavailability and species traits (physiological, morphological, and ecological traits). Furthermore, the author developed several novel BLM-based bioavailability models, which combined chemical insights in metal speciation with biological insights regarding effects and provided a mechanistic framework for site-specific risk assessment of metals.
