- W2112625087 abstract "Awareness of the threat of environmental contaminants to marine mammals is widespread. A high concentration of certain compounds in the tissues of these animals has been associated with organ anomalies, impaired reproduction, and immune function. This has prompted alertness about the impact of pollution and stimulated research into the relationship between observed effects and pollutants. The main reasons for the lack of proof of the impact of pollution on marine mammals are the difficulty or impossibility of experimenting in laboratory conditions with these animals, and the frequent occurrence of confounding factors that hamper the establishment of cause–effect relationships. The concept of pollution incorporates many different substances to which marine mammals are exposed and might adversely affect their health. These include chemical compounds, oil-pollution-derived substances, marine debris, sewage-related pathogens, excessive amounts of nutrients causing environmental changes, and radionuclides. Pollution is only one of the many environmental factors that influence the health status of marine mammals. Natural environmental variations such as redistribution of planktonic organisms may bring changes in distribution, abundance, or recruitment of the species that constitute the food of marine mammals. Habitat may be disturbed by a wide range of human activities, including recreation, construction works, and many others. Some persistent chemicals are bioaccumulative and their concentrations in living organisms undergo a progressive amplification through food chains, a process called biomagnification. The impact of pollution on marine mammals can occur throughout the entire chain from exposure, uptake, and metabolism to excretion. Concentration in prey is a determining factor." @default.
