TL;DR: The combined effects of reduced average fitness and increased variability contributed to increased extinction rates for very low diversity populations.

TL;DR: This study shows that phototoxicity can occur in marine waters to marine species and the occurrence of oil in marine Waters presents the additional risk of photot toxicity not routinely assessed for during oil spills.

TL;DR: Preliminary evidence from whole sediment TIEs indicates that organic compounds play a major role in the toxicity of marine sediments, with almost no evidence for either metal or ammonia toxicity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted experiments to determine the causal toxic agent(s) in pore waters from New Bedford Harbor sediments to amphipods and mysid shrimp.

TL;DR: A standardized embryonic and larval fish bioassay is modified to include measurement of fluorescence in the urinary bladders of living embryos as a nondestructive indicator of EROD activity, consistent with the conclusion that this fluorescence method is a specific and sensitive nondESTructive indicators of Ah receptor‐mediated effects in an embryonic fish.
