increase in concentration of a pollutant from one link in a food chain to another.
Biomagnification is the bioaccumulation of a substance up the food chain by transfer of residues of the substance in smaller organisms that are food for larger organisms in the chain. It generally refers to the sequence of processes that results in higher concentrations in organisms at higher levels in Biomagnification:
the food chain (at higher trophic levels). These processes result in an organism having higher concentrations of a substance than is present in the organism's food. Biomagnification can result in higher concentrations of the substance than would be expected if water were the only exposure mechanism. Accumulation of a substance only through contact with water is known as bioconcentration..

If the levels of pollution (air, land, etc) exceed the recommended levels, then it is a potential risk to the human body which may increase the chances of lung cancer for example (in case of air pollution).

Global Pollution Levels are the global scale assessment of pollution levels throughout the world. They measure pollution levels in each country, and compare them to each other.

Some organisms die when there is high or higher levels of pollution. This means that they are pollution sensitive. However, if they are pollution tolerant, it means that they can survive high levels of pollution without dying.
The process of stopping pollution takes place on two levels. As an individual, you can make choices in your own life, to avoid polluting. On the political level, you can vote for, and support, politicians whose policies are designed to stop pollution.
Eutrophication
No. Tricyclic antidepressants primarily increase levels of serotonin and, in some cases, norepinephrine as well. If estrogen levels increase incidentally, they do so through secondary effects in the neuroendocrine system as a result of these monoamine increases.
The air pollution levels in Shanghai, China are bad due to the extreme population of the area. There is a lot of industry and unfortunately they do not have the proper laws in place to avoid causing extreme pollution levels.
Global Pollution Levels are the global scale assessment of pollution levels throughout the world. They measure pollution levels in each country, and compare them to each other.
The ozone is a pollutant at ground level. It is a greenhouse gas too. Phenomenon like lightening, smog etc increase ozone pollution levels to increase.Ozone in the lower atmosphere has three causes:Electrical discharges like lightningAs part of the photochemical smog creation processAs adown washing of stratospheric ozone as winds blow over mountains
A project on pollution can include the different levels of pollution and their effects on the environment. Also, things that can be done to reduce pollution can be part of the project.
Increase levels of the deficient substance, often through oral supplements or injections
