Eutrophication and the Ecological Health Risk [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
This Special Issue focuses on eutrophication and related ecological health risks—one of the biggest challenges to sustainable water management. It is increasingly recognized that eutrophication has multidimensional consequences for water quality, both ecosystem and human health, as well as economic activities. These consequences depend on site-specific

Epidemiology of age-dependent prevalence of Bovine Herpes Virus Type 1 (BoHV-1) in dairy herds with and without vaccination

Veterinary Research, 2020
Many studies report age as a risk factor for BoHV-1 infection or seropositivity. However, it is unclear whether this pattern reflects true epidemiological causation or is a consequence of study design and other issues. Here, we seek to understand the age-

Mechanistic effect models for ecological risk assessment of chemicals (MEMoRisk) — A new SETAC-Europe Advisory Group

, 2009
Recent reviews of the state-of-the-art of ecological modeling for risk assessments have highlighted the need for standardization of modeling approaches (Pastorok et al. 2003; Grimm et al. 2009).

Color-driven prey similarity can drive selective ingestion of plastics in sea turtles

Global Ecology and Conservation
The hypothesis that sea turtles ingest marine plastic debris because it visually resembles their natural prey, such as jellyfish, has long been proposed, but the supporting evidence has relied largely on necropsy analyses and thus remains indirect.

Human health risk visualization of potentially toxic elements in farmland soil: A combined method of source and probability

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Human health is adversely affected by potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in the topsoil, entering the bodies via inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact.

A Procedure for Ecological Tiered Assessment of Risks (PETAR)

, 2004
Several procedures for Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) have been suggested. The use of these existing procedures often relies on availability of existing data and/or on large resources for acquisition of new ones.

Behavioral responses of captive-bred post-hatchling and juvenile sea turtles to different colors of single-use plastic film

Scientific Reports
Sea turtles face significant threats from plastic ingestion, yet their behavioral responses to plastics remain poorly understood. We observed the responses of eight 4-year-old juvenile and twenty-seven 10-week-old post-hatchling captive-bred hawksbill ...
