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 ... -
What Are Lake Beaches Made of? An Assessment of Plastic Beach Litter on the Shores of Como Bay (Italy)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Plastic waste dispersion is a well-recognized environmental threat, despite continuous efforts towards improving waste disposal management over the last few decades. Plastic litter is known to strongly impact upon water ... -
Ultraviolet B modulates gamma radiation-induced stress responses in Lemna minor at multiple levels of biological organisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Elevated levels of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation may co-occur and pose cumulative hazards to biota. However, the combined effects and underlying toxicity mechanisms of different types of radiation in aquatic plants ... -
Kelp carbon sink potential decreases with warming due to accelerating decomposition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Cycling of organic carbon in the ocean has the potential to mitigate or exacerbate global climate change, but major questions remain about the environmental controls on organic carbon flux in the coastal zone. Here, we ... -
Short-term effects of macrophyte removal on emission of CO2 and CH4 in shallow lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Mass development of macrophytes in freshwater ecosystems is today considered a worldwide problem and substantial resources are spent on macrophyte removal each year. By removing the dominant primary producer, however, this ... -
Unified understanding of intrinsic and extrinsic controls of dissolved organic carbon reactivity in aquatic ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Despite our growing understanding of the global carbon cycle, scientific consensus on the drivers and mechanisms that control dissolved organic carbon (DOC) turnover in aquatic systems is lacking, hampered by the mismatch ... -
Laboratory Development of an AI System for the Real-Time Monitoring of Water Quality and Detection of Anomalies Arising from Chemical Contamination
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Monitoring water quality is critical for mitigating risks to human health and the environment. It is also essential for ensuring high quality water-based and water-dependent products and services. The monitoring and detection ... -
Empirical support for sequential imprinting during downstream migration in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The precise homing of Atlantic salmon to their natal river and spawning grounds is the foundation for locally adapted genetically differentiated populations across rivers or across river sections. A sequential imprinting ... -
International Intercomparison of In Situ Chlorophyll-a Measurements for Data Quality Assurance of the Swedish Monitoring Program
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Chlorophyll-a is an essential climate variable. Chlorophyll-a in situ measurements are usually used for the validation of satellite images. Previous intercomparisons have shown that there can be substantial differences ... -
Lessons from bright-spots for advancing knowledge exchange at the interface of marine science and policy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Evidence-informed decision-making is in increasing demand given growing pressures on marine environments. A way to facilitate this is by knowledge exchange among marine scientists and decision-makers. While many barriers ... -
Global estimates of the extent and production of macroalgal forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Macroalgal habitats are believed to be the most extensive and productive of all coastal vegetated ecosystems. In stark contrast to the growing attention on their contribution to carbon export and sequestration, understanding ... -
Short-term temporal variation of coastal marine eDNA
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Temporal variation in eDNA signals is increasingly explored for understanding community ecology in aquatic habitats. Seasonal changes have been addressed using eDNA sampling, but very little is known regarding short-term ... -
Kelp forest distribution in the Nordic region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Kelp forests are productive coastal ecosystems that provide a range of ecosystem services. Mapping the distribution and area occupied by kelp forests is a critical step to identify their ecosystem functions and services, ... -
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 ... -
Alkylated Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds in Road Runoff Are an Environmental Risk and Should Be Included in Future Investigations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) and metals are important contaminants in road runoff. Vital mitigation measures against aquatic contamination from road runoff include the use of sedimentation ponds. However, it has ... -
Examining the Relevance of the Microplastic-Associated Additive Fraction in Environmental Compartments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Plastic contamination is ubiquitous in the environment and has been related to increasing global plastic usage since the 1950s. Considering the omnipresence of additives in plastics, the risk posed by this contamination ... -
Nitrate respiration occurs throughout the depth of mucoid and non-mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa submerged agar colony biofilms including the oxic zone
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and well characterized biofilm former. P. aeruginosa forms strong oxygen gradients inside biofilms due to rapid oxygen respiration in the top layers and the poor solubility ... -
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals used as common plastic additives: Levels, profiles, and human dietary exposure from the Indian food basket
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as phthalic acid esters (PAEs) and bisphenol A (BPA) are the most widely used plastic additives in polymeric materials. These EDCs are ubiquitously distributed in the environment. ... -
Exploring dynamics of riverine phosphorus exports under future climate change using a process-based catchment model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)A quantitative understanding of riverine phosphorus (P) export in response to shifts in anthropogenic inputs, terrestrial retention, and climate is important for developing mitigation measures at a watershed scale. In this ... -
Is Glacial Meltwater a Secondary Source of Legacy Contaminants to Arctic Coastal Food Webs?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Climate change-driven increases in air and sea temperatures are rapidly thawing the Arctic cryosphere with potential for remobilization and accumulation of legacy persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in adjacent coastal ...
