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-

Technologically modified genes in natural populations [PDF]

, 1993
Current theories of evolutionary and ecological genetics cannot be used for general statements on risk assessment of gene technology. In a simplifying model, the genes which are transferred from artificial populations are treated like mutations in the ...

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 ...

Use of mesocosm and field studies to assess the effects of nutrient levels on phytoplankton population dynamics in Korean coastal waters

Frontiers in Marine Science
We integrated data from field observations during April and March with data from a 2-week mesocosm experiment to investigate changes in phytoplankton populations in southern Korean coastal waters (KCWs) following nutrient enrichment during early spring ...
