Relating environmental pressures to littoral biological water quality indicators in Western Balkan lakes: Can we fill the largest gaps?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Along six transects in each of six lakes across the Western Balkans, we collected data for three groups of littoral biological water quality indicators: epilithic diatoms, macrophytes, and benthic invertebrates. We assessed ... -
Road de-icing salt: Assessment of a potential new source and pathway of microplastics particles from roads
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Roads are estimated to be the largest source of microplastic particles in the environment, through release of particles from tires, road markings and polymer-modified bitumen. These are all released through the wear and ... -
Seasonal changes in uptake and depuration of 137Cs and 90Sr in silver Prussian carp (Carassius gibelio) and common rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Seasonal rainfall affects occurrence of organohalogen contaminants in tropical marine fishes and prawns from Zanzibar, Tanzania
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Seasonal differences in precipitation may affect contaminant dynamics in tropical coastal regions due to terrestrial runoff of contaminants to the marine environment after the rainy seasons. To assess the effect of seasonal ... -
Significant build-up of soil organic carbon under climate-smart conservation farming in Sub-Saharan Acrisols
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Conservation farming (CF) involving minimumtillage, mulching and crop rotation may offer climate change adaptation and mitigation benefits. However, reported effects of CF, as applied by smallholders, on storage of soil ... -
Signs of adaptation to trace metal contamination in a common urban bird

Stabilization of PFAS-contaminated soil with activated biochar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Biochars are considered potential sustainable sorbents to reduce the leaching of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) fromcontaminated soils. However, biochar characteristicsmust probably be optimized to achieve ... -
Stabilization of PFAS-contaminated soil with sewage sludge- and wood-based biochar sorbents
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024) -
Steroids in house sparrows (Passer domesticus): Effects of POPs and male quality signalling

The effect of biochar, lime and ash on maize yield in a long-term field trial in a Ultisol in the humid tropics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A multi-season field trial was carried out to investigate the effect of the amendment of biochar, lime, ash and washed biochar on the growth of maize. A degraded, strongly acidic Ultisol (pHKCl 3.60), with a relatively ... -
Tire wear particles concentrations in gully pot sediments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)While tire wear and tear is known to be a major source of microplastics in the environment, its monitoring is still hampered by the lack of analytical methods able to provide concentrations in environmental matrices. ... -
Trace elements and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in terrestrial compartments of Svalbard, Norwegian Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Despite being a remote location, the Arctic is a major receptor for anthropogenic pollution transported from the mid-latitudes. Vegetation and underlying organic soils in the Norwegian Arctic, Svalbard were used to study ... -
Transcriptomic analysis reveals dose-dependent modes of action of benzo(a)pyrene in polar cod (Boreogadus saida)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Polar cod (Boreogadus saida) has been used as a model Arctic species for hazard assessment of environmental stressors such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, most of the PAH studies using polar cod rely ... -
Ultraviolet B modulates gamma radiation-induced stress responses in Lemna minor at multiple levels of biological organisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Elevated levels of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation may co-occur and pose cumulative hazards to biota. However, the combined effects and underlying toxicity mechanisms of different types of radiation in aquatic plants ... -

Waste timber pyrolysis in a medium-scale unit: Emission budgets and biochar quality
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Pyrolysis of organic waste or woody materials yields a stable carbonaceous product that can be mixed into soil and is often termed “biochar”. During pyrolysis carbon-containing gases are emitted, mainly volatile organic ...
