Oil spill response, whether planned by government agencies, oil spill cooperatives or individual companies, can be planned and carried out with the goal of minimizing ecological impacts, not merely removing visible oil. Two oil spill cooperatives on the west coast are implementing such planning. ...
As the pollution discharge of aquaculture has characteristics of low pollutant concentration, large quantity of drainage, and non-point source discharge, it is difficult to meet the treatment requirements of aquaculture waste water by referring to the prevention and treatment of point source pollution a...
3). This study aims to provide comparative data for future analyses of the effects of oil spills from the War, with further studies pending until there is safe access to these sites. Fig. 3 Identified oil spills in 2022, within the boundaries of the Ukrainian sector of the NWBS, based ...
S3A–C), an outcome we consider likely due to different microbial species sharing the same functional role across individuals [20] as well as the short-term nature of our intervention. These findings suggest that within 24 h of a nutrient shift, the human gut microbiome alters its ...
Given the size of the Earth’s land mass and the large number of nations involved in reaching consensus, it is unlikely that a consistent methodology based on ground-based measurements and/or aircraft/drone observations will achieve any short-term solution for access to accurate and repeatable and...
Offshore wind energy is widely regarded as one of the most credible sources for increasing renewable energy production towards a resilient and decarbonised energy supply. However, current expectations for the expansion of energy production from offshore wind may lead to significant environmental impacts...
Hazards of HNS spills to marine organisms are little understood, with most works focusing on short-term ecotoxicological investigations with freshwater experiments or effects on rodents (Rocha et al., 2016). Yet, HNS can induce severe toxic effects manifested at individual, population or community le...

Similar methods are used to understand the transport and dispersion processes of things such as marine debris (Isobe et al.2019), oil spills (Korotenko et al.2004), and chemical pollutants [e.g., radioactive materials (Cetina et al.2000)] by the inclusion of peculiar, material-dependent pr...
For Irgarol, on the other hand, it made more sense to use the conservative value derived by ECHA (2014b), which was based on a short term exposure of Monoporeia affinis (Wiklund et al., 2009). This study was disregarded in the dataset (Table 2), which was focused on long-term ...
