Assessing sources and fractions of metals associated with environmental plastics: a case study in Lake Como (Italy)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Understanding plastic–metal interactions is paramount to unveil the ecological risks of plastic pollution. Besides including a (variable) amount of metal-containing additives, plastic objects can adsorb metals on their ... -
Assessing Stress Resilience After Smolt Transportation by Waterborne Cortisol and Feeding Behavior in a Commercial Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Grow-Out Recirculating Aquaculture System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Sampling protocols and water quality sensors have been developed to assess fish health and welfare in recirculating aquaculture systems (RASs). Still, the use of fish-based non-invasive welfare indicators, reflecting the ... -
Assessing the benefits of forested riparian zones: A qualitative index of riparian integrity is positively associated with ecological status in European streams
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Developing a general, predictive understanding of ecological systems requires knowing how much structural and functional relationships can cross scales and contexts. Here, we introduce the CROSSLINK project that investigates ... -
Assessing Tolerance to the Hydrodynamic Exposure of Posidonia oceanica Seedlings Anchored to Rocky Substrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Among a suite of abiotic and biotic factors, the hydrodynamic regime strongly influences the success of seagrass recruitment through sexual propagules. Uprooting of propagules by drag forces exerted by currents and waves ... -

Assessment of a novel device for onsite integrative large-volume solid phase extraction of water samples to enable a comprehensive chemical and effect-based analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The implementation of targeted and nontargeted chemical screening analysis in combination with in vitro and organism-level bioassays is a prerequisite for a more holistic monitoring ofwater quality in the future. For ... -
Assessment of collective pressure in marine spatial planning: The current approach of EU Member States
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We report on EU Member States' assessment of the collective pressure through cumulative impact assessments (CIA) in their implementation of the EU Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (MSPD). While the MSPD is ambiguous on ... -
Assessment of marine sediment remediation efficiency with SPME-based passive sampling measurement
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Passive sampling has been shown to be a suitable procedure to assess the risk of contaminated sediments through the measurement of freely dissolved concentrations (CFree) and remedial actions involving amendments such as ... -
Assessment of microbial activity in water based on hydrogen peroxide decomposition rates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This study proposes a new and simple assay that allows rapid assessment of microbial activity in water samples. The assay consists of standardized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) addition to a water sample and subsequent ... -
Assessment of risk and risk-reducing measures related to the introduction and dispersal of the invasive alien carpet tunicate Didemnum vexillum in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Didemnum vexillum is colonial sea squirt, a marine species which originates from the northwest Pacific; it was first recorded in Norway in November 2020. Didemnum vexillum is an alien species, meaning that it is a species ... -
Assessment of seasonal variability of input of microplastics from the Northern Dvina River to the Arctic Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Northern Dvina River is one of the largest rivers in the European Arctic flowing into the White Sea through the populated regions with developed industry. Floating plastics include microplastics (0.5–5 mm) and mesoplastics ... -
Assessment of the risk to Norwegian biodiversity from private import and keeping of Northern Cardinal. Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Biodiversity of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)VKM has evaluated the risk to biodiversity from allowing private import and keeping of the Northern Cardinal as a caged bird in Norway, for birds acquired through the bird trade. VKM has reviewed the invasion ecology of ... -
Assessment of the risks posed by domestic cats (Felis catus) to biodiversity and animal welfare in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)VKM has evaluated to what extent keeping of cats pose a risk to biodiversity in Norway. Risks were assessed separately for threats to biodiversity from direct predation, indirect (non-lethal) effects, competition with other ... -
Associations Between Behavioral Effects of Bisphenol A and DNA Methylation in Zebrafish Embryos
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Endocrine-disrupting contaminants have been associated with aberrant changes in epigenetic pathways in animals. In this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed bisphenol A (BPA) to search for associations between behavior ... -
Associations between timing and magnitude of spring blooms and zooplankton dynamics in the southwestern Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)During the past decades, many high-latitude marine systems have experienced a strong warming trend with poorly understood consequences for trophic coupling and ecosystem functioning. A key knowledge gap is how timing and ... -
Assuring the integrity of offshore carbon dioxide storage
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Carbon capture and storage is a key mitigation strategy proposed for keeping the global temperature rise below 1.5 °C. Offshore storage can provide up to 13% of the global CO2 reduction required to achieve the Intergovernmental ... -
Atmospheric mercury inputs in montane soils increase with elevation: evidence from mercury isotope signatures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)The influence of topography on the biogeochemical cycle of mercury (Hg) has received relatively little attention. Here, we report the measurement of Hg species and their corresponding isotope composition in soil sampled ... -
Attachment of antimicrobial peptides to reverse osmosis membranes by Cu(i)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar alkyne-azide cycloaddition
