From greening to browning: Catchment vegetation development and reduced S-deposition promote organic carbon load on decadal time scales in Nordic lakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Increased concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), often labelled “browning”, is a current trend in northern, particularly boreal, freshwaters. The browning has been attributed to the recent reduction in sulphate ... -
From meta-system theory to the sustainable management of rivers in the Anthropocene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Regional-scale ecological processes, such as the spatial flows of material, energy, and organisms, are fundamental for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in river networks. Yet these processes remain largely ... -
From Molecular Descriptors to Intrinsic Fish Toxicity of Chemicals: An Alternative Approach to Chemical Prioritization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The European and U.S. chemical agencies have listed approximately 800k chemicals about which knowledge of potential risks to human health and the environment is lacking. Filling these data gaps experimentally is impossible, ... -
From national monitoring to transnational indicators: reporting and processing of aquatic biology data under the European Environment Agency’s State of the Environment data flow
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Biological monitoring data from aquatic ecosystems are collected from European countries on a yearly basis by the European Environment Agency (EEA) through the Water Information System for Europe (WISE). The WISE-SoE (State ... -
A function-based typology for Earth’s ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)As the United Nations develops a post-2020 global biodiversity framework for the Convention on Biological Diversity, attention is focusing on how new goals and targets for ecosystem conservation might serve its vision of ... -
Functional biogeography: Stoichiometry and thresholds for interpreting nutrient limitation in aquatic plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Atmospheric N pollution may shift nutrient limitations in aquatic autotrophs from N to P or cause an intensification of P limitation in formerly pristine areas. Small changes in nutrient supply in oligotrophic lakes and ... -
Funksjonelle egenskaper ved bunndyrsamfunn i vassdrag – et mulig verktøy i fremtidig miljøovervåking?
(NIVA-rapport;6702, Research report, 2014)Fysisk-kjemiske endringer på en lokalitet kan spores gjennom forandringer i bunndyrsamfunnets funksjonelle og strukturelle sammensetning, og gi oss viktig informasjon om vassdragets helsetilstand. Taksonomisk basert biologisk ... -
Funksjonsspesifikasjon Aquamonitor Surveillance and Information Versjon 1 og 2
(NIVA-rapport;6631, Research report, 2014)Spesifikasjonen baserer seg på hva som allerede fantes i NIVAs system Aquamonitor og hva som var mulig å utføre i ENSIS. Spesifikasjonen som er gitt her kan være ufullstendig. Den er gitt punktvis og til dels i en ... -
Future monitoring of litter and microplastics in the Arctic – challenges, opportunities and strategies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) has published a plan and guidelines for the monitoring of litter and microplastics (MP) in the Arctic. Here we look beyond suggestions for immediate monitoring and ... -
Future trajectories of change for an Arctic deep-sea ecosystem connected to coastal kelp forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Environmental stressors related to climate change and other anthropogenic activities are impacting Arctic marine ecosystems at exceptional rates. Within this context, predicting future scenarios of deep-sea ecosystems and ... -
Gamma irradiation during gametogenesis in young adult zebrafish causes persistent genotoxicity and adverse reproductive effects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The biological effects of gamma radiation may exert damage beyond that of the individual through its deleterious effects on reproductive function. Impaired reproductive performance can result in reduced population size ... -
Gamma radiation induces dose-dependent oxidative stress and transcriptional alterations in the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Among aquatic organisms, invertebrate species such as the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna are believed to be sensitive to gamma radiation, although information on responses at the individual, biochemical and molecular ... -
Gaps in current Baltic Sea environmental monitoring – Science versus management perspectives
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Legislations and commitments regulate Baltic Sea status assessments and monitoring. These assessments suffer from monitoring gaps that need prioritization. We used three sources of information; scientific articles, project ... -
Gene Flow, Recombination, and Selection in Cyanobacteria: Population Structure of Geographically Related Planktothrix Freshwater Strains
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Several Planktothrix strains, each producing a distinct oligopeptide profile, have been shown to coexist within Lake Steinsfjorden (Norway). Using nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) genes as markers, it has been shown ... -
Generating environmental sampling and testing data for micro- and nanoplastics for use in life cycle impact assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Ongoing efforts focus on quantifying plastic pollution and describing and estimating the related magnitude of exposure and impacts on human and environmental health. Data gathered during such work usually follows a receptor ... -
Genetic and morphological variation in Chara contraria and a taxon morphologically resembling Chara connivens
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Charophyte species delineation is regularly based on a set of thallus morphological characteristics, but considering pronounced phenotypic plasticity, difficulties and doubts commonly occur in Chara species determination. ... -
Genetic diversity of the NE Atlantic sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis unveils chaotic genetic patchiness possibly linked to local selective pressure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)We compared the genetic differentiation in the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis from discrete populations on the NE Atlantic coast. By using eight recently developed microsatellite markers, genetic structure ... -
Genetic heterogeneity of two bioeconomically important kelp species along the Norwegian coast
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Knowledge of genetic diversity among wild populations is becoming increasingly important as more species are recognized for their bioeconomic value. Industrialization of natural resources, such as kelp in the marine shallow ... -
