Article Synopsis
- This study challenges the assumption that all individuals within a species respond the same way to chemical exposure by examining the copper sensitivity of the freshwater snail Lymnaea stagnalis across different populations.
- Significant variability in copper-induced mortality, daily death rates, and time to half mortality (LT50) was observed among the genetically distinct strains.
- The findings suggest that using a single population for ecological risk assessments can lead to unreliable conclusions, highlighting the need to integrate evolutionary principles into ecotoxicity testing.
Method for tracking vibrations with high amplitude of several hundreds of micrometers is presented. It is demonstrated that it is possible to reconstruct a synthetic high amplitude deformation of auto-oscillations encoded with digital Fresnel holograms. The setup is applied to the auto-oscillation of a clarinet reed in a synthetic mouth.
