The effects of chronic cadmium exposure on American toad (Bufo americanus) tadpoles.

abstract：:Demographic methods can translate toxicant effects on individuals into consequences for populations. To date few such studies have been conducted with longer-lived invertebrates. This is because full life-cycle experiments are difficult with such species. Here we report the effects of copper and cadmium on the key dem...
