How We Can Help
Our toxicologists are experts in evaluating contaminant specific effects to aquatic algae, invertebrates, fish, amphibians, and birds. We draw on experience in specialized fields of eco-toxicology and predictive water quality modelling to evaluate the potential for project-related influences on biota while considering site-specific modifying physical, chemical, and biological factors that can affect bioavailability and toxicity (e.g., chemical complexation and competition, specific biota sensitivities). Through our understanding of the various complex factors that can affect toxicity and incorporation of various tools within our studies, our experts are able to provide multiple lines of evidence to support a site-specific assessment of contaminant effects ensuring cost-efficiencies for our clients.
