The ecotoxicology of marine tributyltin (TBT) hotspots: A review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Tributyltin (TBT) was widely used as a highly efficient biocide in antifouling paints for ship and boat hulls. Eventually, TBT containing paints became globally banned when TBT was found to cause widespread contamination ... -
Effect of Extreme Weather Events on Contaminant Transport From Urban Run-Off to a Fjord System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Urbanization has resulted in increased contaminant run-off in densely populated areas. Climate change is expected to result in a higher frequency of extreme weather events including torrential rainfall and storms. The ... -
The effect of fertilizer subsidies on investment in soil and water conservation and productivity among ghanaian farmers using mechanized irrigation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The fertilizer subsidies reintroduced in various sub-Saharan African countries from 2007 aim to increase agricultural production and assist in the development of fertilizer markets. The present study evaluates the impact ... -
The effect of long-range transport, trophic position and diet specialization on legacy contaminant occurrence in great skuas, Stercorarius skua, breeding across the Northeast Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)High levels of halogenated organic contaminants (HOCs) have been found in the marine predatory seabird great skua (Stercorarius skua) from breeding colonies in the Northeastern Atlantic, with large unexplained inter-colony ... -
Effect of ocean acidification on growth and otolith condition of juvenile scup, Stenotomus chrysops
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbonate chemistry, resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed “ocean acidification.” It ... -
Effect of oxidation with coagulation and ceramic microfiltration pre-treatment on reverse osmosis for desalination of recycled wastewater
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Oxidation and coagulation before ceramic microfiltration (CMF) greatly increases membrane flux, but is unconventional for reverse osmosis (RO) pre-treatment. Impacts to RO and the wastewater recycling scheme operating CMF ... -
Effect of pooled sampling in the MILFERSK program
(NIVA-rapport;7925-2024, Research report, 2024)The MILFERSK monitoring program is studying the occurrence and biomagnification of contaminants in freshwater ecosystems, mainly Lake Mjøsa. For the last 10 years, individual samples of muscle and liver from brown trout ... -
Effect of ultrasonic cavitation on small and large organisms for water disinfection during fish transport
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Motivated by the need for additional tools to disinfect discharge water from well boats, and to prevent distribution of salmon lice, the effect of ultrasonic cavitation on the planktonic stages of the salmon louse, nauplii ... -
Effect of water treatment on the growth potential of Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus in seawater
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)In laboratory experiments we added Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus to bottles with seawater previously treated by filtration, UV, chlorine or ozone. The purpose was to investigate the influence of different ... -
Effect-based monitoring of the Danube River using mobile passive sampling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Many aquatic pollutants can be present at low concentrations, but their mixtures can still affect health or behavior of exposed organisms. In this study, toxicological and chemical analyses were combined for spatial ... -
Effect-Directed Analysis Based on Transthyretin Binding Activity of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in a Contaminated Sediment Extract
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Only a fraction of the total number of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are monitored on a routine basis using targeted chemical analyses. We report on an approach toward identifying bioactive substances in ... -
Effectiveness of environmental surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 as an early warning system during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Effects and quantification of acid runoff from sulfide-bearing rock deposited during construction of Highway E18, Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The Highway E18 between the cities of Grimstad and Kristiansand, southern Norway, constructed in the period 2006–2009, cuts through sulfide-bearing rock. The geology of this area is dominated by slowly-weathering gneiss ... -
Effects of acidification on nitrification and associated nitrous oxide emission in estuarine and coastal waters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In the context of an increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) level, acidification of estuarine and coastal waters is greatly exacerbated by land-derived nutrient inputs, coastal upwelling, and complex biogeochemical ... -
Effects of an aquaculture pesticide (diflubenzuron) on non-target shrimp populations: Extrapolation from laboratory experiments to the risk of population decline
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Marine aquaculture production has lately experienced high economic growth, but also concerns related to production and environmental contamination. For the Atlantic salmon aquaculture industry, the ectoparasitic crustacean ... -
Effects of artificial ultraviolet B radiation on the macrophyte Lemna minor: a conceptual study for toxicity pathway characterization
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Macrophytes inhabit waterways around the world and are used in hydroponics or aquaponics for different purposes such as feed and wastewater treatment and are thus exposed to elevated levels of UVB from natural and artificial ... -
