Forested Riparian Zones Provide Important Habitat for Fish in Urban Streams
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Riparian zones form a boundary between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, with disproportionate influences on food web dynamics and ecosystem functioning in both habitats. However, riparian boundaries are frequently ... -
Formation and availability of methylmercury in mercury-contaminated sediment: effects of activated carbon and biochar amendments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose As the formation of toxic and bioaccumulative methylmercury (MeHg) in Hg-contaminated sediments is of great concern worldwide, suitable remediation options are needed. Activated carbon (AC) amendment is a contested ... -
Forurensning i tunnelvaskevann – en studie av 34 veitunneler i Norge
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Vaskevannet fra tunnelrenhold har vist seg å være svært forurenset, men dette er i all hovedsak basert på studier av høytrafikkerte tunneler. I denne artikkelen presenterer vi den mest omfattende undersøkelsen av tunnelvaskevann ... -
Free-living Microturbellarians (Platyhelminthes) from Wetlands in Southern Brazil, with the Description of Three New Species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The Taim strict nature reserve (ESEC Taim) is a protected wetland (Ramsar site) in southern Brazil. Although the ESEC Taim harbours a broad conspicuous flora and fauna, this area lacks studies on free-living Platyhelminthes. ... -
Freshwater Lacustrine Zooplankton and Microplastic: An Issue to Be Still Explored
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lakes are essentially interlinked to humans as they provide water for drinking, agriculture, industrial and domestic purposes. The upsurge of plastic usage, its persistence, and potential detrimental effects on organisms ... -
Freshwater treatment of amoebic gill disease and sea-lice in seawater salmon production: Considerations of water chemistry and fish welfare in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Amoebic gill disease (AGD) and sea lice are two of the most significant disease issues that the Norwegian Atlantic salmon aquaculture industry is facing. Although both diseases respond to various extents, to freshwater ... -
From Arctic Science to Global Policy – Addressing Multiple Stressors Under the Stockholm Convention
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Rapid climate change in the Arctic triggers the remobilization of chemical pollution, increasing its exposure and potential impacts in the region. While scientific knowledge on multiple stressors, including the interlinkages ... -
From Arctic Science to International Law: The Road towards the Minamata Convention and the Role of the Arctic Council
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The Minamata Convention, which entered into force on 16 August 2017, is a global, legally binding instrument on mercury. The initiative on the Minamata Convention was mainly driven by research showing negative effects on ... -
From Centroided to Profile Mode: Machine Learning for Prediction of Peak Width in HRMS Data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Centroiding is one of the major approaches used for size reduction of the data generated by high-resolution mass spectrometry. During centroiding, performed either during acquisition or as a pre-processing step, the mass ... -
From Conventional Disinfection to Antibiotic Resistance Control—Status of the Use of Chlorine and UV Irradiation during Wastewater Treatment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Extensive use of antibiotics for humans and livestock has led to an enhanced level of antibiotic resistance in the environment. Municipal wastewater treatment plants are regarded as one of the main sources of antibiotic-resistant ... -
From Green to Red: Horizontal Gene Transfer of the Phycoerythrin Gene Cluster between Planktothrix Strains
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Horizontal gene transfer is common in cyanobacteria, and transfer of large gene clusters may lead to acquisition of new functions and conceivably niche adaption. In the present study, we demonstrate that horizontal gene ... -
From greening to browning: Catchment vegetation development and reduced S-deposition promote organic carbon load on decadal time scales in Nordic lakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Increased concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), often labelled “browning”, is a current trend in northern, particularly boreal, freshwaters. The browning has been attributed to the recent reduction in sulphate ... -
From meta-system theory to the sustainable management of rivers in the Anthropocene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Regional-scale ecological processes, such as the spatial flows of material, energy, and organisms, are fundamental for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in river networks. Yet these processes remain largely ... -
From Molecular Descriptors to Intrinsic Fish Toxicity of Chemicals: An Alternative Approach to Chemical Prioritization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The European and U.S. chemical agencies have listed approximately 800k chemicals about which knowledge of potential risks to human health and the environment is lacking. Filling these data gaps experimentally is impossible, ... -
From national monitoring to transnational indicators: reporting and processing of aquatic biology data under the European Environment Agency’s State of the Environment data flow
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Biological monitoring data from aquatic ecosystems are collected from European countries on a yearly basis by the European Environment Agency (EEA) through the Water Information System for Europe (WISE). The WISE-SoE (State ... -
A function-based typology for Earth’s ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)As the United Nations develops a post-2020 global biodiversity framework for the Convention on Biological Diversity, attention is focusing on how new goals and targets for ecosystem conservation might serve its vision of ... -
Functional biogeography: Stoichiometry and thresholds for interpreting nutrient limitation in aquatic plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Atmospheric N pollution may shift nutrient limitations in aquatic autotrophs from N to P or cause an intensification of P limitation in formerly pristine areas. Small changes in nutrient supply in oligotrophic lakes and ... -
Future monitoring of litter and microplastics in the Arctic – challenges, opportunities and strategies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) has published a plan and guidelines for the monitoring of litter and microplastics (MP) in the Arctic. Here we look beyond suggestions for immediate monitoring and ... -
Future trajectories of change for an Arctic deep-sea ecosystem connected to coastal kelp forests
