Sensitivity of freshwater organisms to cadmium and copper at tropical temperature exposures: Derivation of tropical freshwater ecotoxicity thresholds using species sensitivity distribution analysis

Tropical freshwater ecosystems are increasingly influenced by chemical stressors including heavy metals posing threats to biodiversity. Adequate ecotoxicity data are not available for native tropical freshwater species for deriving water quality guidelines and for conducting ecological risk assessme...
