A new broad typology for rivers and lakes in Europe: Development and application for large-scale environmental assessments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)European countries have defined >1000 national river types and >400 national lake types to implement the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD). In addition, common river and lake types have been defined within regions of ... -
A single pulse of diffuse contaminants alters the size distribution of natural phytoplankton communities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The presence of a multitude of bioactive organic pollutants collectively classified as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in freshwaters is of concern, considering that ecological assessments of their ... -
A tool for cost-effectiveness analysis of field scale sediment-bound phosphorus mitigation measures and application to analysis of spatial and temporal targeting in the Lunan Water catchment, Scotland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The cost-effectiveness of six edge-of-field measures for mitigating diffuse pollution fromsediment bound phos- phorus (P) runoff from temperate arable farmland is analysed at catchment/field scales. These measureswere: ... -
Airborne emissions of microplastic fibres from domestic laundry dryers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)An emission source of microplastics into the environment is laundering synthetic textiles and clothing. Mechanical drying as a pathway for emitting microplastics, however, is poorly understood. In this study, emissions of ... -
An integrative biological effects assessment of a mine discharge into a Norwegian fjord using field transplanted mussels
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The blue mussel (Mytilus sp.) has been used to assess the potential biological effects of the discharge effluent from the Omya Hustadmarmor mine, which releases its tailings into the Frænfjord near Molde, Norway. Chemical ... -
Analysis of stimulant drugs in the wastewater of five Nordic capitals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Wastewater-based epidemiology is an efficient way to assess illicit drug use, complementing currently used methods retrieved from different data sources. The aim of this study is to compare stimulant drug use in five Nordic ... -
Aquatic biodiversity in sedimentation ponds receiving road runoff - What are the key drivers?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Recently, increased attention has been paid to biodiversity conservation provided by blue-green solutions such as engineered ponds that are primarily established for water treatment and flood control. However, little ... -
Assaying waterborne psychoactive drugs by the response to naturalistic predator cues in the stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Ecotoxicological effects of psychiatric drugs and drug metabolites released by the human population are of increasing environmental concern. In this study we evaluate behavioral responses to visual predator cues in wild ... -
Assessing critical load exceedances and ecosystem impacts of anthropogenic nitrogen and sulphur deposition at unmanaged forested catchments in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Anthropogenic emissions of nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) compounds and their long-range transport have caused widespread negative impacts on different ecosystems. Critical loads (CLs) are deposition thresholds used to ... -
Assessment of a novel device for onsite integrative large-volume solid phase extraction of water samples to enable a comprehensive chemical and effect-based analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The implementation of targeted and nontargeted chemical screening analysis in combination with in vitro and organism-level bioassays is a prerequisite for a more holistic monitoring ofwater quality in the future. For ... -
Assessment of marine sediment remediation efficiency with SPME-based passive sampling measurement
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Passive sampling has been shown to be a suitable procedure to assess the risk of contaminated sediments through the measurement of freely dissolved concentrations (CFree) and remedial actions involving amendments such as ... -
A Bayesian Belief Network learning tool integrates multi-scale effects of riparian buffers on stream invertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Riparian forest buffers have multiple benefits for biodiversity and ecosystem services in both freshwater and terrestrial habitats but are rarely implemented in water ecosystem management, partly reflecting the lack of ... -
Best available technologies and treatment trains to address current challenges in urban wastewater reuse for irrigation of crops in EU countries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Conventional urban wastewater treatment plants (UWTPs) are poorly effective in the removal of most contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), including antibiotics, antibiotic resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance ... -
Binding of waterborne pharmaceutical and personal care products to natural dissolved organic matter
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Information on how key environmental conditions such as natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) and water pH alter the possible risks posed by pharmaceuticals (PPCPs) is still scarce. In our previous study, the presence of ... -
Bioaccumulation and biomagnification of mercury in African lakes: The importance of trophic status
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Despite the global prevalence of both mercury (Hg) contamination and anthropogenic eutrophication, relatively little is known about the behavior of Hg in eutrophic and hypereutrophic systems or the effects of lake trophic ... -
Bioaccumulation and trophic transfer of cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes (cVMS) in the aquatic marine food webs of the Oslofjord, Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The trophic transfer of cyclic methylsiloxanes (cVMS) in aquatic ecosystems is an important criterion for assessing bioaccumulation and ecological risk. Bioaccumulation and trophic transfer of cVMS, specifically ... -
Bioaccumulation of selected veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) in the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) are widely used within the fish farming industry to control sea lice infestations. There is concern that wild and farmed mussels in the vicinity to these fish farms may be exposed and ... -
Characterization of cell responses in Rhodomonas baltica exposed to PMMA nanoplastics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Due to their small size, nanoplastics (NPLs) possess specific properties which can potentiate their toxicity towards aquatic organisms. As primary producers, microalgae are at the base of aquatic food chains, thus negative ... -
Characterization of multiple biomarker responses using flow cytometry to improve environmental hazard assessment with the green microalgae Raphidocelis subcapitata
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Microalgal toxicity tests using integrative endpoints as algal growth are regularly required to analyse the toxicity of potentially hazardous substances in the aquatic environment. However, these do not provide mechanistic ... -
