Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The occurrence of harmful marine organisms in the coastal waters is gradually increasing due to factors such as rising sea temperatures resulting from climate change, coastal pollution, alterations in the structure of marine food webs, and habitat destruction caused by development. Therefore, in this Special Issue, we aim to address research findings on the chemical, physiological, and ecological interactions between organisms and the environment. It is well known that water pollution caused by various pollutants since the Industrial Revolution has significantly impacted the aquatic biota. Through this Special Issue, we anticipate the inclusion of comprehensive insights into past issues, recent toxicological concerns affecting human health, and insights into factors that could pose serious problems in the future. We hope that experts from various fields will participate to collectively address issues concerning humanity or ecosystems.
