Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) in the Canadian Freshwater Environment. [PDF]

Arch Environ Contam Toxicol, 2022
Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are anthropogenic substances that are very stable in the receiving environment. PFASs are persistent and resistant to typical environmental degradation processes and therefore are distributed across all trophic levels and environmental compartments (soil, air, water). Since most uses of PFOS,

Phenanthrene Biodegradation in Freshwater Environments [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980
Phenanthrene, a low-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, was incubated with water samples from various reservoir systems in Tennessee to evaluate the potential for significant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon degradation by the indigenous microbial populations.

Extended K distributions for freshwater environment [PDF]

Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2018
Many of the freshwater Kd values required for quantifying radionuclide transfer in the environment (e.g. ERICA Tool, Symbiose modelling platform) are either poorly reported in the literature or not available. To partially address this deficiency, Working Group 4 of the IAEA program MODARIA (2012-2015) has completed an update of the freshwater Kd ...

Microplastics in freshwater environments

, 2023
Plastic pollution in aquatic environments is a recognized environmental threat on a global scale and is fed by the linear economy model of "make-use-dispose," which underpins both the fossil fuel and plastic industries. This chapter examines the issue of microplastic pollution in different freshwater environments: (i) rivers and tributaries, (ii) lakes,

Edwardsiella tarda in freshwater catfish and their environment [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1979
Edwardsiella tarda was isolated from 47, 88, and 79% of skin, visceral, and dressed-fish samples, respectively. This species was also isolated from 30% of imported dressed fish, 75% of catfish pond water samples, 64% of catfish pond mud samples, and 100% of frogs, turtles, and crayfish from catfish ponds.

Fate of Pyrethroids in Freshwater and Marine Environments [PDF]

, 2020
As a consequence of their increasing use, pyrethroid insecticides are recognized as a threat for nontarget species and ecosystem health. The present chapter gives a state-of-art overview of individual pyrethroid occurrence in waters and sediments worldwide, together with recent reports of their quantification in the atmospheric gas and aerosol phases ...

Microplastics in Terrestrial and Freshwater Environments [PDF]

, 2021
Abstract In recent years, the focus of microplastic research has begun to observe a shift from the marine towards terrestrial and freshwater environments. This is in response to a greater awareness of the predominance of land-based sources in marine microplastic contamination.

Climate change and its implications for Australia's freshwater fish [PDF]

, 2011
Freshwater environments and their fishes are particularly vulnerable to climate change because the persistence and quality of aquatic habitat depend heavily on climatic and hydrologic regimes.

Ubiquity, Diversity, and Genomic Complexity of Cyanophages in Freshwater Environments

Proceedings, 2020
Cyanophages are viruses that infect cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green algae) and are ubiquitious in marine and freshwater environments. In recent years, freshwater cyanophages have attracted more attention because they can affect global freshwater ...
