Marine primary producers in a darker future: a meta-analysis of light effects on pelagic and benthic autotrophs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The availability of underwater light, as primary energy source for all aquatic photoautotrophs, is (and will further be) altered by changing precipitation, water turbidity, mixing depth, and terrestrial input of chromophoric ... -
Marine Spatial Planning in the North Sea – Are National Policies and Legal Structures Compatible Enough? The Case of Norway and the Netherlands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Marine spatial planning is an important tool to achieve a more ecosystem-based governance approach to marine ecosystems. Marine ecosystems often transcend national jurisdictional boundaries, so the compatibility of national ... -
Maskinell rydding av plastinfiltrerte jordmasser fra Samuelskilen på Mellom-Bolæren, Færder nasjonalpark
(NIVA-rapport;7444, Research report, 2019)Jordmassene hentet ut med maskinell rydding fra Samuelskilen i Færder nasjonalpark på øya Mellom-Bolæren, inneholdt totalt 5% plast per vektenhet (av størrelse over 5 mm) og 50% per volumenhet. All plasten fra jordmassene ... -
Mass aggregations of Bibio pomonae (Insecta: Diptera: Bibionidae), an indication of climate change?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Examination of stomach contents of the brown trout is a sensitive method to evaluate the animals occurring in a lake and its surroundings. Yearly test fishing from Lake Sandvatn at the Hardangervidda Mountain plateau in ... -
Mass spectrometric strategies for the investigation of biomarkers of illicit drug use in wastewater
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The analysis of illicit drugs in urban wastewater is the basis of wastewater‐based epidemiology (WBE), and has received much scientific attention because the concentrations measured can be used as a new non‐intrusive tool ... -
Material Flow for the Intentional Use of Mercury in China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Intentional use of mercury (Hg) is an important contributor to the release of Hg into the environment. This study presents the first inventory of material flow for intentional use of Hg in China. The total amount of Hg ... -
Maternal transfer and occurrence of siloxanes, chlorinated paraffins, metals, PFAS and legacy POPs in herring gulls (Larus argentatus) of different urban influence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Urban herring gulls (Larus argentatus) are exposed to contaminants from aquatic, terrestrial and anthropogenic sources. We aim to assess if differences in urbanisation affect ecological niche and contaminant concentrations ... -
Measurement of naphthenic acids in the receiving waters around an offshore oil platform by passive sampling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Polar organic chemical integrative samplers (POCIS) were deployed in the vicinity of an offshore oil installation and analyzed for naphthenic acids (NAs). The POCIS accumulated a range of mono‐ to tetracyclic NAs, with ... -
