The ECOTOXicology database is a source for locating single chemical toxicity data for aquatic life, terrestrial plants and wildlife. ECOTOX integrates three toxicology effects databases AQUIRE (aquatic life), PHYTOTOX (terrestrial plants), and TERRETOX (terrestrial wildlife). These databases were created by the U.S. EPA, Office of Research and Development (ORD), and the National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laborator) (NHEERL), Mid-Continent Ecology Division... 

Contemporary forest declines were initiated about 1950-1960, virtually simultaneously throughout the industrial world at the same time as damage to aquatic systems and structures became apparent. A broad array of natural and anthropogenic stresses have been identified as components of a complex web of primary causal factors that vary in time and space, interact among each other, affect various plant growth and development systems and may result in the death of trees in mountainous ecosystems. As these ecosystems decline, the alterations in forest ecology, independent of the initial causal complex, become themselves additional stress factor complexes leading to further alterations.

The lEP provides the monitoring fi amework to characterize the status and trends of Delta aquatic ecosystems. The lEP strives to provide information on the many factors that affect ecological resorrrces in the Delta. Key near-term goals for the lEP include (1) collecting and analyzing data needed to understand factors controlling the distribution and abundance of selected fish and wildlife resources, (2)...

Considering evidence from both field and mesocosm studies, it may be concluded that certain groups of aquatic macroinvertebrates are sensitive to pyrethroids and that there can be changes, in the short term, at the population level and above with exposure to environmentally realistic concentrations of them. It should be possible to pick up effects of this kind in natural waters using ecological profiling, for example, the River Invertebrate Prediction and Classification System (RIVPACS). There is...
