Fungicides: An overlooked pesticide class?

TL;DR: It is shown that fungicides occur widely in aquatic systems, that the accuracy of predicted environmental concentrations is debatable, and that fungicide exposure can be effectively mitigated, andThat fungicides can be highly toxic to a broad range of organisms and can pose a risk to aquatic biota.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impacts of multiple stressors on freshwater biota across spatial scales and ecosystems.

Sebastian Birk, +71 more
TL;DR: A cross-scale analysis of paired-stressor effects on biological variables of European freshwater ecosystems shows that in 39% of cases, significant effects were limited to single stressors, with nutrient enrichment being the most important of these in lakes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature and the metabolic balance of streams

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of temperature and nutrient cycling in whole-system metabolism (ER, GPP and net ecosystem production) in naturally heated geothermal (5−25°C) Icelandic streams was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thresholds for the Effects of Pesticides on Invertebrate Communities and Leaf Breakdown in Stream Ecosystems

TL;DR: The UP threshold for single pesticides based on D. magna is not protective for field communities subject to multiple stressors, pesticide mixtures, and repeated exposures and that risk mitigation measures, such as forested landscape patches, can alleviate effects of pesticides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sources, occurrence and predicted aquatic impact of legacy and contemporary pesticides in streams

TL;DR: Results suggest that groundwater, in addition to precipitation and surface runoff, is an important source of pesticides entering surface water, and legacy pesticides, metabolites and impurities are important for explaining the estimated total toxicity attributable to pesticides.
