Main Topics:
1. Modeling of Biological System
1.1 Biomonitor control system design
●An optimal trace zinc biomonitor (Haliotis diversicolor sup-
ertexta) control system design in aquacultural ecosystem.
●Dynamic feedback optimization of bioresource management in a
polluted ecosystem.
1.2 Bioenvironmental systems modeling and design
●An adaptive control model of material flows for a highly
cybernetic biosystem.
●An inhalation dose model for assessing dust-borne VOC-odor
exposure from feeding in swine buildings.
2. Analysis and Modeling of Ecotoxicology
2.1 Acute toxicity modeling
● Acute toxicity modeling of rainbow trout and silver sea bream
exposed to waterborne metals.
● A physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic
(PBPD/PD) model for heavy metal accumulation in fish and
shellfish.
2.2 Bioaccumulation and toxicity
● Toxicokinetics and acute toxicity of waterborne zinc in
abalone.
● Linkage of biokinetic and consumer-resource dynamic of contam-
inant bioaccumulation by aquatic herbivores.
