Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental Fate of Fungicides in Surface Waters of a Horticultural-Production Catchment in Southeastern Australia
Adam M. Wightwick,Adam M. Wightwick,Anh Duyen Bui,Pei Zhang,Gavin Rose,Mayumi Allinson,Jackie H. Myers,Suzie M. Reichman,Neal W. Menzies,Neal W. Menzies,Vincent Pettigrove,Vincent Pettigrove,Graeme Allinson +12 more
TL;DR: Generally the concentrations of the fungicides detected were several orders of magnitude lower than reported ecotoxicological effect values, suggesting that concentrations of individual fungicides in the catchment were unlikely to pose an ecological risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological evidence links adverse biological effects to pesticide and metal contamination in an urban Australian watershed
Claudette R. Kellar,Kathryn L. Hassell,Sara M. Long,Jackie H. Myers,Lisa A. Golding,Gavin Rose,Anupama Kumar,Ary A. Hoffmann,Vincent Pettigrove +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that it is important to investigate biological effects in different taxa, in both the laboratory and field, to understand which stressors are causing adverse effects on faunal assemblages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of antifouling biocides to the germination and growth of the marine macroalga, Hormosira banksii (Turner) Desicaine.
TL;DR: Germination and growth inhibition tests using the marine macroalga, Hormosira banksii (Turner) Desicaine were conducted to evaluate the toxicity of four new antifouling biocides in relation to tributyltin-oxide (TBTO).
Journal ArticleDOI
Altered reproductive behaviours in male mosquitofish living downstream from a sewage treatment plant
Minna Saaristo,Minna Saaristo,Jackie H. Myers,Rowan Jacques-Hamilton,Mayumi Allinson,Atsushi Yamamoto,Graeme Allinson,Vincent Pettigrove,Bob B. M. Wong +8 more
TL;DR: This study illustrates that lifetime exposure to WWTP-effluents can greatly affect male behaviour and underscores the importance of behaviour as a potential tool for investigating unknown contaminants in the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Municipal wastewater effluent licensing: A global perspective and recommendations for best practice.
Liz Morris,Valentina Colombo,Kathryn L. Hassell,Claudette R. Kellar,P. Leahy,Sara M. Long,Jackie H. Myers,Vincent Pettigrove +7 more
TL;DR: In order to meet the challenges required to protect the values of the authors' waterways, licensing of effluents will need to ensure that there is no disconnect between the core values to be protected and the monitoring system designed to scrutinise performance of the WWTP.
