DOI: 10.1002/etc.4462
Abstract: Field surveys provide valuable empirical information about the effects of heavy metals on the biological integrity of river ecosystems. To evaluate the effect of nickel (Ni) on aquatic organisms, we conducted field surveys of benthic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10602
Abstract: In the high Arctic, recruitment of hard-bottom benthic organisms has been studied at single locations, but little is known about how it varies spatially or temporally, or how it is influenced by abiotic factors. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-019-04074-3
Abstract: Insecticides are broadly applied in many urban areas of the western United States to control mosquito populations and reduce the prevalence of diseases such as West Nile and Zika Virus. We assessed the extent to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.114161
Abstract: Internal release of nutrients is an important contributor to the nutrient dynamics in shallow eutrophic lakes. Zoobenthic organisms may contribute to this release by excreting nutrients to the overlaying water. Based on experiments and using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.2c03265
Abstract: Sediments represent the main reservoir of mercury (Hg) in aquatic environments and may act as a source of Hg to aquatic food webs. Yet, accumulation routes of Hg from the sediment to benthic organisms are… read more here.
