Impacts of water residence time on nitrogen budget of lakes and reservoirs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)As an important factor related to the self-purification capacity (e.g. denitrification, burial rate, and downstream output) in aquatic systems, water residence time (WRT) has great impacts on the nitrogen (N) dynamics and ... -
Impaired benthic macrofauna function 4 years after sediment capping with activated carbon in the Grenland fjords, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The sediments in the Grenland fjords in southern Norway are heavily contaminated by large emissions of dioxins and mercury from historic industrial activities. As a possible in situ remediation option, thin-layer sediment ... -
IMPASSE – Impacts of microplastic in agrosystems and stream environments
(NIVA-rapport;7632, Research report, 2021)We found that the application of biosolids from sewage sludge represents an important source of microplastics (MP) to agricultural soils. Soils that received more biosolid treatments in the past exhibit higher levels of ... -
Implementing the Minamata Convention on Mercury: Will China Deliver?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)China has undertaken a major shift in its position on mercury as an environmental problem over the last decade and a half. It ratified the Minamata Convention (MC) in 2016 and by doing so has committed to implement the ... -
Implications of Coastal Darkening for Contaminant Transport, Bioavailability, and Trophic Transfer in Northern Coastal Waters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The increased transport of terrestrially derived organic material (tOM) from catchments to rivers and lakes is leading to browning of northern freshwaters.(1) Although the same environmental drivers can be expected to lead ... -
Implications of elevated CO2 on pelagic carbon fluxes in an Arctic mesocosm study - an elemental mass balance approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Recent studies on the impacts of ocean acidification on pelagic communities have identified changes in carbon to nutrient dynamics with related shifts in elemental stoichiometry. In principle, mesocosm experiments provide ... -
The importance of aquatic macrophytes in a eutrophic tropical shallow lake
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Inlay Lake is the second largest natural lake in Myanmar. Located in Shan State, in the eastern part of the country, it is a known biodiversity hotspot. The lake is negatively affected by an increasing local human population ... -
Importance of wave and current exposure to fauna communities in Laminaria hyperborea kelp forest
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Hydrodynamic forces from waves and currents may have strong but different impacts on benthic diversity. In order to study the relative importance of current and wave exposure to the diversity of macrofauna associated with ... -
Improved Environmental Status: 50 Years of Declining Fish Mercury Levels in Boreal and Subarctic Fennoscandia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Temporally (1965–2015) and spatially (55°–70°N) extensive records of total mercury (Hg) in freshwater fish showed consistent declines in boreal and subarctic Fennoscandia. The database contains 54 560 fish entries (n: pike ... -
Improvement in municipal wastewater treatment alters lake nitrogen to phosphorus ratios in populated regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Large-scale and rapid improvement in wastewater treatment is common practice in developing countries, yet this influence on nutrient regimes in receiving waterbodies is rarely examined at broad spatial and temporal scales. ... -
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 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), ... -
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 ... -
