An Ecotoxicologically Relevant Approach To Water Quality Monitoring For Contaminants Of Emerging Concern

Abstract

Contaminants of Emerging Concern (CECs) have been documented across the seven continents, including Antarctica, and are likely an impediment to the sustainable management of natural resources. Most studies to date have relied on sweeping chemistry surveys, reliant upon sophisticated instrumentation. This approach is expensive, relies on limited laboratory capacity, and generates results that are spatially and temporally constrained. Here, we review existing approaches that can overcome these limitations by focusing on
