Facilitating foundation species: The potential for plant-bivalve interactions to improve habitat restoration success
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1.Vegetated marine and freshwater habitats are being increasingly lost around the world. Habitat restoration is a critical step for conserving these valuable habitats, but new approaches are needed to increase restoration ... -
Farmers´ preferences for reductions in flood risk under monetary and non-monetary payment modes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We use a split-sample choice experiment to investigate the effects of alternative payment modes on the purchase of flood insurance among smallholder irrigation farmers in Ghana. Results show that insurance up-take is lower ... -
Fast and accurate on-site determination of rotenone in water during fish control treatments using liquid chromatography
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A fast, accurate and simple method using liquid chromatography (LC) with UV detection was used for the on-site determination of the piscicide rotenonein water during fish control treatments. Sample volumes of 10 to 40 µL ... -
Fate and occurrence of micro(nano)plastics in soils: Knowledge gaps and possible risks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The majority of micro(nano)plastic research has been concentrated on the marine environment. Whilst the ocean represents an ultimate sink for contamination, this focus overlooked key processes and pathways of micro(nano)plastics ... -
Fate of microplastics in agricultural soils amended with sewage sludge: Is surface water runoff a relevant environmental pathway?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Sewage sludge used as agricultural fertilizer has been identified as an important source of microplastics (MPs) to the environment. However, the fate of MPs added to agricultural soils is largely unknown. This study ... -
Faunal trophic structure at hydrothermal vents on the southern Mohn's Ridge, Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)We explore the trophic ecology of heterotrophic fauna associated with a high temperature (HT) vent, 2 low temperature vents, a ‘near-HT vent’ habitat and a non-vent site situated at upper bathyal depths on the southern ... -
FerryBox-assisted monitoring of mixed layer pH in the Norwegian Coastal Current
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The evaluation of marine carbonate system variability and the impacts of ocean acidification (OA) on coastal marine ecosystems increasingly rely on monitoring platforms capable of delivering near real-time in situ carbonate ... -
Fiddler crabs and their above-ground sedimentary structures: a review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fiddler crabs are abundant, semi-terrestrial crustaceans inhabiting tropical, subtropical and warm temperate coasts worldwide. Some species build above-ground sedimentary structures at or near the opening to their burrows. ... -
Filtration characterization method as tool to assess membrane bioreactor sludge filterability-the Delft experience
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Prevention and removal of fouling is often the most energy intensive process in Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs), responsible for 40% to 50% of the total specific energy consumed in submerged MBRs. In the past decade, methods ... -
Financial and Institutional Support Are Important for Large-Scale Kelp Forest Restoration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Kelps form extensive underwater forests that underpin valuable ecosystem goods and services in temperate and polar rocky coastlines globally. Stressors, such as ocean warming and pollution are causing regional declines of ... -
Finding the Balance between Research and Monitoring: When Are Methods Good Enough to Understand Plastic Pollution?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Plastic pollution is an international environmental problem. Desire to act is shared from the public to policymakers, yet motivation and approaches are diverging. Public attention is directed to reducing plastic consumption, ... -
Fine-scale behavioural differences distinguish resource use by ecomorphs in a closed ecosystem
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Temporal differences in habitat use and foraging specialisms between ecomorphs represent aspects of behavioural phenotype that are poorly understood with regard to the origin and maintenance of ecological diversity. We ... -
First Documented Uses of Caves along the Coast of Albania by Mediterranean Monk Seals (Monachus monachus, Hermann 1779): Ecological and Conservation Inferences
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Information on the habitat use of the Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) along the coast of Albania (Adriatic and Ionian Sea) has so far been limited to vague and generalised data. A survey conducted in the National ... -
First records, rediscovery and compilation of deep-sea echinoderms in the middle and lower continental slope of the Mediterranean Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This study provides a compilation of all available information on deep-sea echinoderms from the middle and lower slopes of the Mediterranean Sea, with the aim of providing a unified source of information on the taxonomy ... -
Five decades of declining methylmercury concentrations in boreal foodwebs suggest pivotal role for sulphate deposition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Widespread declines in mercury (Hg) in fish in pristine lakes in Fennoscandia since the 1970s are unexplained. Interactions between climate, atmospheric deposition, and elemental cycling of carbon (C), sulphur (S) and Hg ... -
Floating Riverine Litter Flux to the White Sea: Seasonal Changes in Abundance and Composition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Arctic rivers bring litter from their basins to the sea, but accurate data for the Arctic do not exist yet. This study presents the first assessment of floating macro litter input (>2.5 cm) from the Northern Dvina and Onega ... -
Flow Cytometric Analysis of Bacterial Protein Synthesis: Monitoring Vitality After Water Treatment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Bacterial vitality after water disinfection treatment was investigated using bio-orthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT) and flow cytometry (FCM). Protein synthesis activity and DNA integrity (BONCAT–SYBR ... -
Fluorinated Precursor Compounds in Sediments as a Source of Perfluorinated Alkyl Acids (PFAA) to Biota
