| Abstract: | Comparative analysis of approaches and methods of biological assessment of water quality is presented. A method of ecotoxicological diagnostic of aquatic ecosystem  health and water quality evaluation based on the physiological state of fish are substantiated. Characteristics of the main symptoms of diseases in fish inhabiting freshwater bodies and pathologic disturbances in their organs and tissues, caused by water bodies contamination with toxic substances, are presented. The method of ecotoxicological assessment of water quality is shown to be both highly informative and easy-to-use in practical monitoring.Translated from Vodnye Resursy, Vol. 32, No. 2, 2005, pp. 184–195.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Moiseenko. |
