Toxicogenomics in Environmental Science
2016This chapter reviews the current knowledge and recent progress in the field of environmental, aquatic ecotoxicogenomics with a focus on transcriptomic methods. In ecotoxicogenomics the omics technologies are applied for the detection and assessment of adverse effects in the environment, and thus are to be distinguished from omics used in human ...

International Journal of Environmental Studies, 1986
Several recent critiques of Western, science‐based, technological society call for a shift away from the present paradigm of reductionism to one of holism. One manifestation of this would be the development of a new kind of science which is non‐interventionist, non‐manipulative, and much more environmentally aware. The object of Part 1 of this paper is

Principles of Environmental Sciences
2009Principles of Environmental Sciences provides a comprehensive picture of the principles, concepts and methods that are applicable to problems originating from the interaction between the living and non-living environment and mankind. Both the analysis of such problems and the way solutions to environmental problems may work in specific societal ...

Environmental science, environmentalism and governance
Environmental Conservation, 2007Most environmental scientists care about the state of nature. They are concerned about loss of biodiversity, degradation of ecosystems services and threats to sustainability. Do such concerns and the values they reflect make an environmental scientist an environmentalist? Should they be environmentalists?

Introduction to Environmental Sciences
2020Environmental health literacy should integrate perceptions from both environmental and health literacy to ensure informed choices, improve quality of life, reduce health risks, and protect the environment. In this context, the term “environment” means a space surrounding a microbe, or neighborhood of house, or the village/city where we live, or the ...

Management Science, Economics and Environmental Science
Management Science, 1973Microeconomics and management science are close relatives in terms of the tools they use. Economics differs primarily in that it studies the performance of entire economic systems and major subsystems. Management science models can be expanded to examine environmental policy and the design of institutions for environmental management.
