Seasonality in land–ocean connectivity and local processes control sediment bacterial community structure and function in a High Arctic tidal flat
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Climate change is altering patterns of precipitation, cryosphere thaw, and land–ocean influxes, affecting understudied Arctic estuarine tidal flats. These transitional zones between terrestrial and marine systems are ... -
Using a Bayesian Network Model to Predict Risk of Pesticides on Aquatic Community Endpoints in a Rice Field—A Southern European Case Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Bayesian network (BN) models are increasingly used as tools to support probabilistic environmental risk assessments (ERAs), because they can better account for uncertainty compared with the simpler approaches commonly used ... -
Global benthic biogeographical regions and macroecological drivers for ophiuroids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Delineating biogeographical regions can provide important insights into the processes shaping large-scale species distribution patterns. Here we aimed to 1) identify global marine benthic biogeographical regions for ... -
Temperature and prey density drive growth and otolith formation of the world's most valuable fish stock
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Peruvian anchovy (Engraulis ringens) represents the largest single-species fishery worldwide. Knowledge on how temperature and prey availability influences growth and age estimation during marine fish early life stages is ... -
Prediction of Extraordinarily High Floods Emerging From Heterogeneous Flow Generation Processes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)River floods are generated by various processes that, if disregarded, may induce errors in flood hazard assessment. This is particularly relevant where events extraordinarily larger than the typical floods have been observed, ... -
Screening of Tire-Derived Chemicals and Tire Wear Particles in a Road Tunnel Wash Water Treatment Basin
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Road tunnels play a crucial role in modern road networks, in both urban and non-urban areas, and necessitate frequent cleaning and washing due to the harsh tunnel environment. As a result, road tunnels are considered hot ... -
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 ... -
Ultrafast Electrochemical Self-Doping of Anodic Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes for Enhanced Electroanalytical and Photocatalytic Performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This study explores an ultrarapid electrochemical self-doping procedure applied to anodic titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotube arrays in an alkaline solution to boost their performance for electroanalytical and photocatalytic ... -
Inferring heavy tails of flood distributions through hydrograph recession analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Floods are often disastrous due to underestimation of the magnitude of rare events. Underestimation commonly happens when the magnitudes of floods follow a heavy-tailed distribution, but this behavior is not recognized and ... -
Observing Temporally Varying Synoptic-Scale Total Alkalinity and Dissolved Inorganic Carbon in the Arctic Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The long-term absorption by the oceans of atmospheric carbon dioxide is leading to the slow decline of ocean pH, a process termed ocean acidification (OA). The Arctic is a challenging region to gather enough data to examine ... -
Interlaboratory Comparison of Extractable Organofluorine Measurements in Groundwater and Eel (Anguilla rostrata): Recommendations for Methods Standardization
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Research on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) frequently incorporates organofluorine measurements, particularly because they could support a class-based approach to regulation. However, standardized methods for ... -
The challenges of opportunistic sampling when comparing prevalence of plastics in diving seabirds: A multi-species example from Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)There is a need for baseline information about how much plastics are ingested by wildlife and potential negative consequences thereof. We analysed the frequency of occurrence (FO) of plastics >1 mm in the stomachs of five ... -
Hydrogen sulphide dynamics in recirculating aquaculture systems with moving or fixed bed biofilters: A case study in two commercial salmon smolt producing farms in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Sudden mass mortalities of fish reared in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) have occurred in recent years. High total dissolved sulphide (H2S + HS- + S2-) levels in the rearing water have been suggested as an underlaying ... -
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 ... -
Municipal Solid Waste Fly Ash-Derived Zeolites as Adsorbents for the Recovery of Nutrients and Heavy Metals—A Review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Though fly ash from the incineration of municipal solid waste (MSW-FA) is considered hazardous waste, its huge and increasing volumes and potential value due to high concentrations of salts and heavy metals such as copper ... -
Big Question to Developing Solutions: A Decade of Progress in the Development of Aquatic New Approach Methodologies from 2012 to 2022
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In 2012, 20 key questions related to hazard and exposure assessment and environmental and health risks of pharmaceuticals and personal care products in the natural environment were identified. A decade later, this article ... -
Estimation of ecosystem respiration and photosynthesis in supersaturated stream water downstream of a hydropower plant
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The estimation of whole stream metabolism, as determined by photosynthesis and respiration, is critical to our understanding of carbon cycling and carbon subsidies to aquatic food-webs. The mass development of aquatic ... -
Effect-Directed Analysis Based on Transthyretin Binding Activity of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in a Contaminated Sediment Extract
