It should be noted that many (maybe "most") ecotoxicologists are not in
ecotox programs per se, but are part of departments or programs called
"environmental science," "biology," or "ecology." Perhaps students
interested in ecotoxicology would get a broader education in that sort
of graduate program. It also might make them more flexible and marketable
subsequently when looking for positions - they might be able to apply
and compete for jobs in a greater variety of disciplines.
1880's: "There's lots of good fish in the sea" W.S. Gilbert
1990's: Many fish stocks depleted due to overfishing, habitat loss,
and pollution.
2000's: Marine reserves, ecosystem restoration, and pollution reduction
MAY help restore populations.
