Anthropogenically impacted lake catchments in Denmark reveal low microplastic pollution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Microplastics have been detected in lake environments globally, including in remote regions. Agricultural and populated areas are known to congregate several inputs and release pathways for microplastic. This study ... -
Detection of tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate and other organophosphorous compounds in Arctic rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The flame-retardant tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate (TDBrPP) was in the 1970s banned for uses in textiles that may be in contact with the skin, owing to strong suspicions that the substance was a human carcinogen. The ... -
Enhanced treatment of shale gas fracturing waste fluid through plant-microbial synergism
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cost-efficient and environmentally friendly treatment of hydraulic fracturing effluents is of great significance for the sustainable development of shale gas exploration. We investigated the synergistic effects of ... -
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 ... -
Perfluoroalkyl substances in circum-ArcticRangifer: caribou and reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Livers of caribou and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) from Canada (n = 146), Greenland (n = 30), Svalbard (n = 7), and Sweden (n = 60) were analyzed for concentrations of eight perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids and four ... -
Pesticide risk assessment and management in a globally changing world—report from a European interdisciplinary workshop

Physicochemical and biological ageing processes of (micro)plastics in the environment: a multi-tiered study on polyethylene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Pollution by plastic and microplastic impacts the environment globally. Knowledge on the ageing mechanisms of plastics in natural settings is needed to understand their environmental fate and their reactivity in the ... -
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as sentinels for the elucidation of Arctic environmental change processes: a comprehensive review combined with ArcRisk project results
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) can be used as chemical sentinels for the assessment of anthropogenic influences on Arctic environmental change. We present an overview of studies on PCBs in the Arctic and combine these ... -
Response of marine benthic fauna to thin-layer capping with activated carbon in a large-scale field experiment in the Grenland fjords, Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A field experiment with thin-layer capping was conducted in the Grenland fjords, Norway, for remediation in situ of mercury and dioxin-contaminated sediments. Experimental fields at 30 and 95 m depth were capped with (i) ...
