摘要: Aquatic and terrestrial mesocosms have been used successfully to examine ecological ecotoxicological questions with amphibians. Mesocosms represent a bridge between the laboratory natural world, allow for experimental research on factors that influence amphibian populations communities. In this manuscript, we review current literature utilizing ecotoxicology, evaluate role mesocosm studies could play in suggest future directions. are advantageous relative other systems because treatments easily replicated, multiple environmental can be manipulated, food webs established, direct indirect effects examined, contamination evaluated. This allows examination of contaminant trophic taxonomic levels an ecologically relevant context. Standard guidelines testing amphibians should created aid new researchers, make more comparable, facilitate risk assessment.
