Journal ArticleDOI
The environmental fate and effects of antifouling paint biocides
Kevin V. Thomas,Steven Brooks +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of the environmental fate and occurrence data that are in the public domain for AF biocides is provided and some insight is provided into the effects of these compounds on non-target organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blue mussels (Mytilus edulis spp.) as sentinel organisms in coastal pollution monitoring: A review
Jonny Beyer,Norman Whitaker Green,Steven Brooks,Ian Allan,Anders Ruus,Tania Gomes,Inger Lise Nerland Bråte,Merete Schøyen +7 more
TL;DR: The blue mussel (Mytilus spp.) is widely used as a bioindicator for monitoring of coastal water pollution (mussel watch programs) and some important issues for future research and development are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variation in biomarkers in blue mussel (Mytilus edulis), Icelandic scallop (Chlamys islandica) and Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)—Implications for environmental monitoring in the Barents Sea
Jasmine Nahrgang,Steven Brooks,Anita Evenset,Lionel Camus,Martina Jönsson,T. J. Smith,J. Lukina,Marianne Frantzen,Erica Giarratano,Paul E. Renaud +9 more
TL;DR: The Icelandic scallop was considered the most adequate organism for environmental monitoring in the Barents Sea due to the interpretability of the biomarker data as well as its abundance, ease to handle and wide distribution from the southern BarentS Sea to Svalbard.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of copper on osmoregulation in the freshwater amphipod Gammarus pulex.
Steven Brooks,Chris Mills +1 more
TL;DR: Differences in enzyme sensitivity were considered with respect to the potential mechanisms of copper toxicity after exposure to nominal copper concentrations of 100 microg l(-1) or greater caused a significant reduction in both haemolymph sodium concentration and sodium influx within 4 h.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water Column Monitoring of the Biological Effects of Produced Water from the Ekofisk Offshore Oil Installation from 2006 to 2009
Steven Brooks,Christopher Harman,Merete Grung,Eivind Farmen,Anders Ruus,Sjur Vingen,Brit F. Godal,Janina Barsiene,Laura Andreikenaite,Halldóra Skarphéðinsdóttir,Birgitta Liewenborg,Rolf C. Sundt +11 more
TL;DR: The mussel bioaccumulation data in 2009 indicated a lower exposure to the PW effluent than seen previously in 2008 and 2006, resulting in an associated general improvement in the health of the caged mussels.
