Miljøtilstanden i Mjøsa med tilløpselver 2017
(NIVA-rapport;7255, Research report, 2018)Konklusjonen på overvåkingen av Mjøsa i 2017 er at innsjøen er i god økologisk tilstand. Biomassen av planteplankton var lav og i god tilstand på alle målestasjonene med unntak av i september, da det var betydelig mer ... -
The Minamata Convention and mercury policy in China: The role of science
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)What role has science played in China’s decision to support and ratify the Minamata Convention, and in its domestic policies on mercury? Since 2000 there has been a strong increase in internationally produced knowledge on ... -
Mineralization of organic matter in boreal lake sediments: rates, pathways, and nature of the fermenting substrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The complexity of organic matter (OM) degradation mechanisms represents a significant challenge for developing biogeochemical models to quantify the role of aquatic sediments in the climate system. The common representation ... -
Miniaturization of a transthyretin binding assay using a fluorescent probe for high throughput screening of thyroid hormone disruption in environmental samples
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Thyroid hormone (TH) disrupting compounds are potentially important environmental contaminants due to their possible adverse neurological and developmental effects on both humans and wildlife. Currently, the most successful ... -
Mixing apples and oranges: Assessing ecological status and its confidence from multiple and diverse indicators
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ecosystem responses to increasing human pressures are complex and diverse, affecting organisms across all trophic levels. This has prompted the development of methods that integrate information across many indicators for ... -
Mixing in the black sea detected from the temporal and spatial variability of oxygen and sulfide: Argo float observations and numerical modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The temporal and spatial variability of the upper ocean hydrochemistry in the Black Sea is analysed using data originating from profiling floats with oxygen sensors and carried out with a coupled three-dimensional ... -
Mixture effects in samples of multiple contaminants – An inter-laboratory study with manifold bioassays
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Chemicals in the environment occur in mixtures rather than as individual entities. Environmental quality monitoring thus faces the challenge to comprehensively assess a multitude of contaminants and potential adverse ... -
Mobile dynamic passive sampling of trace organic compounds: Evaluation of sampler performance in the Danube River
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A “dynamic” passive sampling (DPS) device, consisting of an electrically driven large volume water pumping device coupled to a passive sampler exposure cell, was designed to enhance the sampling rate of trace organic ... -
Mobile trace elements in sediments from lakes Hawassa, Koka, and Ziway in the Ethiopian Rift Valley
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The present work focuses on total concentrations of trace elements such as chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), arsenic (As), selenium (Se), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) and their ... -
Modeled buoyancy of eggs and larvae of the deep-sea shrimp Aristeus antennatus (Crustacea: Decapoda) in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Information on the buoyancy of eggs and larvae from deep-sea species is rare but necessary for explaining the position of non-swimming larvae in the water column. Due to embryonic morphology and ecology diversities, egg ... -
Modeling and Monitoring of Hydrodynamics and Surface Water Quality in the Sulejów Dam Reservoir, Poland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The aim of this work is to evaluate core variables of the ecological potential of the Sulejów Reservoir (temperature distribution, flow velocities, and concentrations of selected indicators, e.g., phosphates, nitrates, the ... -
Modeling geogenic and atmospheric nitrogen through the East River Watershed, Colorado Rocky Mountains
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)There is a growing understanding of the role that bedrock weathering can play as a source of nitrogen (N) to soils, groundwater and river systems. The significance is particularly apparent in mountainous environments where ... -
Modeling Nickel Leaching from Abandoned Mine Tailing Deposits in Jøssingfjorden
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Underwater disposal of mine tailings in lakes and seas has been considered favorable due to the geochemical stability obtained during long-term storage in anoxic sediments. Sulfides are stable in the ore; however, oxidation ... -
Modeling the influence of eutrophication and redox conditions on mercury cycling at the sediment-water interface in the Berre Lagoon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This study presents a specifically designed Mercury module in a coupled benthic-pelagic reactive-transport model - Bottom RedOx Model (BROM) that allows to study mercury (Hg) biogeochemistry under different conditions. ... -
Modelling environmental impacts of Cesium-137 under a hypothetical release of radioactive waste
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Waste tanks at the nuclear facility located at Sellafield, UK, represent a nuclear source which could release radionuclides to the atmosphere. A model chain which combines atmospheric transport, deposition as well as ... -
Modelling Marine Sediment Biogeochemistry: Current Knowledge Gaps, Challenges, and Some Methodological Advice for Advancement
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The benthic environment is a crucial component of marine systems in the provision of ecosystem services, sustaining biodiversity and in climate regulation, and therefore important to human society. With the contemporary ... -
