New Approach Methodologies for the Endocrine Activity Toolbox: Environmental Assessment for Fish and Amphibians
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Multiple in vivo test guidelines focusing on the estrogen, androgen, thyroid, and steroidogenesis pathways have been developed and validated for mammals, amphibians, or fish. However, these tests are resource-intensive and ... -
New brominated flame retardants and dechlorane plus in the Arctic: Local sources and bioaccumulation potential in marine benthos
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence and bioaccumulation of new flame retardants (nBFRs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and dechlorane plus (DDC-CO) in the marine environment close to an ... -
New insights into submarine tailing disposal for a reduced environmental footprint: Lessons learnt from Norwegian fjords
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Submarine tailing disposal (STD) in fjords from land-based mines is common practice in Norway and takes place in other regions worldwide. We synthesize the results of a multidisciplinary programme on environmental impacts ... -
New insights into traditional health risk assessments of mercury exposure: Implications of selenium
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)There is increasing evidence that selenium (Se) has a significant effect on mercury (Hg) toxicology; however, Hg exposure risk assessments usually consider only the amount of Hg present in the environment or in food. On ... -
New microsatellite loci for the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis using universal M13 labelled markers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014) -
New production across the shelf-edge in the northeastern North Sea during the stratified summer period
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)New production of organic matter from photosynthesis based on “new” nitrate transported into the illuminated surface layer fuels temperate ecosystems during periods of stratification when surface waters are nutrient limited. ... -
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 ... -
Nitrous Oxide Dynamics in the Siberian Arctic Ocean and Vulnerability to Climate Change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a strong greenhouse gas and stratospheric ozone-depleting substance. Around 20% of global emissions stem from the ocean, but current estimates and future projections are uncertain due to poor spatial ... -
No additional stress of sublethal gas supersaturation in a landlocked population of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) exposed to environmental acidification
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The landlocked Atlantic salmon population “bleke” faces extinction due to environmental acidification (EA) and hydropower expansion in the Norwegian river Otra. Despite of restoration, unexpected mortality has been reported ... -
No environmental effect on vaccine-induced reduced growth in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Oil-adjuvanted vaccines reduce long-term growth in farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar, possibly via an increase in metabolic rate due to the energetic demands of the immune system. We tested this hypothesis by comparing ... -
No evidence of a protective or cumulative negative effect of UV-B on growth inhibition induced by gamma radiation in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) seedlings
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Exposure to ambient UV-B radiation may prime protective responses towards various stressors in plants, though information about interactive effects of UV-B and gamma radiation is scarce. Here, we aimed to test whether UV-B ... -
Non-woven polypropylene fabric modified with carbon nanotubes and decorated with nanoakaganeite for arsenite removal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Due to its harmful impact on human health, the presence of heavy metals, metalloids and other toxic pollutants in drinking or irrigation water is a major concern. Recent studies have proved that nanosized adsorbents are ... -
NordAqua, a Nordic Center of Excellence to develop an algae-based photosynthetic production platform
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)NordAqua is a multidisciplinary Nordic Center of Excellence funded by NordForsk Bioeconomy program (2017–2022). The research center promotes Blue Bioeconomy and endeavours to reform the use of natural resources in a ... -
Nordic Blue Carbon Ecosystems: Status and Outlook
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Vegetated coastal and marine habitats in the Nordic region include salt marshes, eelgrass meadows and, in particular, brown macroalgae (kelp forests and rockweed beds). Such habitats contribute to storage of organic carbon ... -
The NORMAN Association and the European Partnership for Chemicals Risk Assessment (PARC): let’s cooperate!
(Others, 2020)The Partnership for Chemicals Risk Assessment (PARC) is currently under development as a joint research and innovation programme to strengthen the scientific basis for chemical risk assessment in the EU. The plan is to ... -
A novel method for the quantification of tire and polymer-modified bitumen particles in environmental samples by pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectroscopy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Tire and road wear particles may constitute the largest source of microplastic particles into the environment. Quantification of these particles are associated with large uncertainties which are in part due to inadequate ... -
De novo Development of a Quantitative Adverse Outcome Pathway (qAOP) Network for Ultraviolet B (UVB) Radiation Using Targeted Laboratory Tests and Automated Data Mining
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a natural non-chemical stressor posing potential hazards to organisms such as planktonic crustaceans. The present study was conducted to revisit the lethal effects of UVB on crustaceans, ... -
Nuisance growth of Juncus bulbosus: the roles of genetics and environmental drivers tested in a large-scale survey
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)1. Invasive species can transform aquatic ecosystems, and the nuisance growth of the freshwater macrophyte Juncus bulbosus has become a problem in many lakes and rivers in northern Europe. It affects biodiversity strongly ... -
