Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Marine Mercury Bioaccumulation presents state-of-the-art research on mercury bioaccumulation in marine life. Written by leading experts in marine toxicology, this book delivers the latest information on monitoring and modeling mercury biomagnification in key marine taxa. Early chapters introduce the basic biology and ecology of how mercury travels through marine organisms and accumulates within marine food webs. Central chapters discuss the current status and exposure risks of key taxa, including marine vegetation, invertebrates, fishes, mammals, and birds. The book concludes with an assessment of human exposure to mercury through seafood products and novel modeling tools to assess environmental exposure risks and bioaccumulation.
Users will find this to be a great resource for a global assessment of mercury contamination in the ocean, including biological resources, monitoring and modeling, current tools, existing research gaps, and suggestions on how to improve our monitoring and policy tools for improved safety of marine life and human consumption. This is an indispensable tool for researchers, resource managers, fisheries stakeholders, and students alike.
