Efficient coralline algal psbA mini barcoding and High Resolution Melt (HRM) analysis using a simple custom DNA preparation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Coralline algae form extensive maerl and rhodolith habitats that support a rich biodiversity. Calcium carbonate harvesting as well as trawling activities threatens this ecosystem. Eleven species were recorded so far as ... -
Elevated Concentrations of 4-Bromobiphenyl and 1,3,5-Tribromobenzene Found in Deep Water of Lake Geneva Based on GC×GC-ENCI-TOFMS and GC×GC-μECD
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)We quantified the concentrations of two little-studied brominated pollutants, 1,3,5-tribromobenzene (TBB) and 4-bromobiphenyl (4BBP), in the deep water column and sediments of Lake Geneva. We found aqueous concentrations ... -
Embedding OWL ontologies with OWL2Vec
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In this paper, we present a preliminary study to compute embeddings for OWL 2 ontologies by projecting the ontology axioms into a graph and performing (random) walks over the ontology graph to create a corpus of sentences. ... -
Emergence, Interpretations and Translations of IWRM in South Africa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)South Africa is often regarded to be at the forefront of water reform, based on Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) ideas. This paper explores how the idea of IWRM emerged in South Africa, its key debates and ... -
Emerging investigator series: geochemistry of trace elements associated with Fe and Mn nodules in the sediment of limed boreal lakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Thousands of boreal lakes were limed for decades in Scandinavia to counteract the effect of anthropogenic acidification. We measured the concentrations of alkali earth metals (Ca, Mg, Ba), metals (Mn, Fe, Al, Co, Cd, Pb, ... -
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 ... -
Enantiomeric profiling of chiral illicit drugs in a pan-European study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The aim of this paper is to present the first study on spatial and temporal variation in the enantiomeric profile of chiral drugs in eight European cities. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) and enantioselective analysis ... -
Enantioselective Analytical- and Preparative-Scale Separation of Hexabromocyclododecane Stereoisomers Using Packed Column Supercritical Fluid Chromatography
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) is an additive brominated flame retardant which has been listed in Annex A of the Stockholm Convention for elimination of production and use. It has been reported to persist in the environment ... -
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. ... -
Endringer i horisontalutbredelsen av tang i Indre Oslofjord – betydningen av kommunenes rensetiltak
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Tangfloraen i Indre Oslofjord har blitt studert mange ganger siden 1893-1894. Et overvåkingsprogram som ble startet i 1974 omfattet registrering av de fem vanligste tangartene, dvs. grisetang, spiraltang, blæretang, sagtang ... -
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 ... -
Environmental Conditions Determine the Course and Outcome of Phytoplankton Chytridiomycosis
(Journal article, 2015)Chytrid fungi are highly potent parasites of phytoplankton. They are thought to force phytoplankton organisms into an evolutionary arms race with high population diversity as the outcome. The underlying selection regime ... -
Environmental effects of offshore produced water discharges: A review focused on the Norwegian continental shelf
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Produced water (PW), a large byproduct of offshore oil and gas extraction, is reinjected to formations or discharged to the sea after treatment. The discharges contain dispersed crude oil, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ... -
Environmental effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill: A review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The Deepwater Horizon oil spill constituted an ecosystem-level injury in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Much oil spread at 1100–1300 m depth, contaminating and affecting deepwater habitats. Factors such as oil-biodegradation, ... -
Environmental effects on Calanus finmarchicus abundance and depth distribution in the Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The vertical migrations performed by zooplankton at daily and seasonal scales are important for marine ecosystem dynamics and biogeochemical cycles. We analysed associations between seasonal variation in abundance and depth ... -
Environmental factors influencing mercury speciation in Subarctic and Boreal lakes
