Improvement of aquaculture management practice by integration of hydrodynamic modelling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Aquaculture has grown to become an important export industry in Norway. The Norwegian Food Safety Authorithy (NFSA) is responsible for the management of the production zones designated to aquaculture. Fish diseases and ... -
In a squeeze: Epibiosis may affect the distribution of kelp forests
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The processes limiting the population recovery of the kelp Saccharina latissima after recent large‐scale loss from the south coast of Norway are poorly understood. Previous investigations do, however, suggest that the ... -
In Inland China, Rice, Rather than Fish, Is the Major Pathway for Methylmercury Exposure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Background: Fish consumption is considered the primary pathway of methylmercury (MeHg) exposure for most people in the world. However, in the inland regions of China, most of the residents eat little fish, but they live ... -
In silico identification of chemicals capable of binding to the ecdysone receptor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The process of molting, known alternatively as ecdysis, is a feature integral in the life cycles of species across the arthropod phylum. Regulation occurs as a function of the interaction of ecdysteroid hormones with the ... -
In silico site-directed mutagenesis of the Daphnia magna ecdysone receptor identifies critical amino acids for species-specific and inter-species differences in agonist binding
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Molting is an essential process in the life cycle of arthropods and is regulated by complex neuroendocrine pathways where activation of the ecdysone receptor (EcR) plays a major role. The EcR forms a non-covalent heterodimer ... -
In Situ and Satellite Observations of Phytoplankton Size Classes in the Entire Continental Shelf Sea, China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Phytoplankton size classes (PSCs) is of great significance for exploring marine ecological and biogeochemical processes. Remote sensing of PSCs has been successfully applied to open oceans; however, it is still quite limited ... -
In vivo and in vitro effects of tunnel wash water and traffic related contaminants on aquatic organisms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)In order to maintain the construction and safety of road tunnels, they are routinely washed. The wash water appears to be highly polluted with a plethora of contaminants in elevated concentrations. In addition, new and ... -
In vivo bioaccumulation of contaminants from historically polluted sediments - Relation to bioavailability estimates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Many contaminants are recalcitrant against degradation. Therefore, when primary sources have been discontinued, contaminated sediments often function as important secondary pollution sources. Since the management and ... -
In-Sewer Stability Assessment of Anabolic Steroids and Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Wastewater-based epidemiology is a potential complementary technique for monitoring the use of performance- and image-enhancing drugs (PIEDs), such as anabolic steroids and selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs), ... -
Inception Report on the Heilongjiang Consolidation Project. "Surveillance of Water Quality in the Songhua River System in the Heilogjiang Province, P.R. of China CHN 017
(NIVA-rapport;4752, Research report, 2003)This Inception Report describes the planned project activities for the consolidation of CHN 017 "Surveillance of Water Quality in the Songhua River System in Heilongjiang Province, P.R. of China". The report was produced ... -
Incidence of persistent contaminants through blue mussels biomonitoring from Flekkefjord fjord and their relevance to food safety
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Dredging activities can lead to the re-suspension of contaminated sediments, resulting in a potential hazard for the whole ecosystem and also for human health. Six-month active biomonitoring was performed in order to monitor ... -
Incorporating climate change model projections into ecological risk assessments to help inform risk management and adaptation strategies: Synthesis of a SETAC Pellston Workshop®
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The impacts of global climate change are not yet well integrated with the estimates of the impacts of chemicals on the environment. This is evidenced by the lack of consideration in national or international reports that ... -
Incorporating climate projections in the environmental risk assessment of pesticides in aquatic ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global climate change will significantly impact the biodiversity of freshwater ecosystems, both directly and indirectly via the exacerbation of impacts from other stressors. Pesticides form a prime example of chemical ... -
Incorporating facilitative interactions into small-scale eelgrass restoration—challenges and opportunities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Marine ecosystem engineers such as seagrasses and bivalves create important coastal habitats sustaining high biodiversity and ecosystem services. Restoring these habitats is difficult due to the importance of feedback ... -
Increased energy expenditure is an indirect effect of habitat structural complexity loss
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The deterioration of coastal habitats cascades to the decline of associated fauna by reducing trophic resource availability, shelter from predators and nursery grounds. The decline of biogenic habitat structure, such as ... -
Increased levels of the oxidative stress biomarker 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α in wastewater associated with tobacco use
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Wastewater analysis has been demonstrated to be a complementary approach for assessing the overall patterns of drug use by a population while the full potential of wastewater-based epidemiology has yet to be explored. ... -
Increased light attenuation in Norwegian coastal waters - A literature review
(NIVA-rapport;7551, Research report, 2020)This report describes the results of a literature review on increased light attenuation and biological effects in Norwegian waters and comparable global coastal regions. An overview of research projects on increased light ... -
Increased precision of growth data gained by reading multiple scales from each individual of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The precision of growth estimates based on fish scales often remains uncertain because of withinindividual variation in scale size and scale patterns, and also due to measurement errors. Based on scale readings of Atlantic ... -
Increased spreading potential of the invasive Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) at its northern distribution limit in Europe due to warmer climate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is an invasive species with a large increase in prevalence globally, and with potential of spreading even more because of climate-change effects. We examined how future climate might ... -
Increased Use of Bayesian Network Models Has Improved Environmental Risk Assessments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Environmental and ecological risk assessments are defined as the process for evaluating the likelihood that the environment may be impacted as a result of exposure to stressors. Although this definition implies the calculation ...
