Because of their ecological representativeness, invertebrates are commonly employed as
test organisms in ecotoxicological assessment; however, to date, biomarkers employed for …

Filamentous, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria form extensive summer blooms in the Baltic Sea.
Their ability to fix dissolved N 2 allows cyanobacteria to circumvent the general summer …

Currently, few studies have investigated the joint toxicity mechanism of azole fungicides at
different exposure times and mixed at the relevant environmental concentrations. In this …

As a proof of principle, a selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry-based
methodology was applied to the simultaneous quantification of dozens of protein biomarkers …

On a daily basis, planktonic organisms migrate vertically and thus experience widely varying
conditions in their physico-chemical environment. In the Gulf of Finland, these changes are …

In the brackish water Baltic Sea, oil pollution is an ever-present and significant
environmental threat mainly due to the continuously increasing volume of oil transport in the …

The marine ecosystems are under severe climate change‐induced stress globally. The
Baltic Sea is especially vulnerable to ongoing changes, such as warming. The aim of this …

Oil spills pose significant environmental risks, particularly in cold seas. In the Baltic Sea, the
low salinity (from 0 to 2 up to 18) affects the behaviour of the spilled oil as well as the …

The wide presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in lakes necessitates a
better understanding of cyanobacteria metabolites under the contamination of PAHs. The M …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are one of the main sources of freshwater pollution
eventually resulting in adverse effects in aquatic organisms. Treated effluents can contain …
