Evolutionary time and species diversity in aquatic ecosystems worldwide
Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 6, Page 2090-2105, December 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is frequently described as the most dramatic biodiversity pattern on Earth, yet ecologists and biogeographers have failed to reach consensus on its primary cause. A key problem in explaining the LDG involves collinearity between multiple factors that are predicted to affect species richness in the same ...

Update of the risk assessment of hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDDs) in food
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021 Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2011 risk assessment on hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDDs) in food. HBCDDs, predominantly mixtures of the stereoisomers α‐, β‐ and γ‐HBCDD, were widely used additive flame retardants. Concern has been raised because of the occurrence of HBCDDs in the environment, food and in humans.

Risk to human health related to the presence of perfluoroalkyl substances in food
EFSA Journal, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020 Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA for a scientific evaluation on the risks to human health related to the presence of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in food. Based on several similar effects in animals, toxicokinetics and observed concentrations in human blood, the CONTAM Panel decided to perform the assessment for the sum of four PFASs ...

Active Versus Passive eDNA Sampling Across Depths at a Tropical Fish‐Aggregating Device (FAD)
Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.Sampling at a fish aggregating device over three consecutive days using active and passive samplers detected a total of 39 fish operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Of these, 25 OTUs were shared between the two sampling approaches. The composition of detected OTUs varied among days and between sampler types.
