Car Tire Crumb Rubber: Does Leaching Produce a Toxic Chemical Cocktail in Coastal Marine Systems?

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Crumb rubber granulate (CRG) produced from end of life tires (ELTs) is commonly applied to synthetic turf pitches (STPs), playgrounds, safety surfaces and walkways. In addition to fillers, stabilizers, cross-linking agents and secondary components (e.g.,

Complex interactions between local adaptation, phenotypic plasticity and sex affect vulnerability to warming in a widespread marine copepod [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Predicting the response of populations to climate change requires an understanding of how various factors affect thermal performance. Genetic differentiation is well known to affect thermal performance, but the effects of sex and developmental phenotypic

The Advantages of Inorganic Fertilization for the Mass Production of Copepods as Food for Fish Larvae in Aquaculture

open access: yesLife, 2022
Copepods are commonly used as live feed for cultured fish larvae, but the current mass production method using organic fertilizers cannot meet the market demand for copepods.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Effects of Epibiotic Diatoms on the Productivity of the Calanoid Copepod Acartia tonsa (Dana) in Intensive Aquaculture Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
We evaluated here the effects of the epibiotic diatom Tabularia sp. on the productivity of the calanoid copepod Acartia tonsa (Dana) for assessing their risk on copepod intensive aquaculture industry for the provision of live feed.

Influence of Age and Exposure Pathway on Copper and Cadmium Mixture Toxicity: A Study on Daphnia magna

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in aquatic ecosystems poses substantial risks to freshwater organisms, with mixture effects often deviating from predictions based on single‐metal toxicity. Understanding how age‐specific sensitivities and multiple exposure pathways influence mixture effects is critical for accurate risk assessment.

Invasive goldfish trigger a regime shift in experimental lake ecosystems of varying trophic state

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The pet trade distributes exotic animals around the globe that enrich human lives. However, some pets become pests when released into the wild. This study provides experimental evidence that goldfish will negatively affect native freshwater organisms and ecosystems.

Seasonal abundance of the demersal copepod Pseudodiaptomus cokeri (Calanoidea: Pseudodiaptomidae) in a Caribbean estuarine environment

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 1998
Seasonal abundance variations of the demersal copepod Pseudodiaptomus cokeriwere examinated at three locations (center, north shore and south shore) in Phosphorescent Bay, Puerto Rico, throughout an annual cycle.

Comparison of invertebrate diversity in lake waters and their resting eggs in sediments, as revealed by high-throughput sequencing (HTS)

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2020
Aquatic invertebrate diversity reflects water quality and the health of aquatic ecosystems and should be monitored as an essential feature of freshwater ecosystems. The resting eggs of aquatic invertebrates in sediments populate the overlying water.
