DOI: 10.1002/etc.5270
Abstract: Equilibrium partitioning (EqP) theory and spiked‐sediment toxicity tests are useful methods to develop sediment quality benchmarks. However, neither approach has been directly compared based on species sensitivity distributions (SSDs) to date. In the present study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00244-019-00692-z
Abstract: Effects of moderate-to-severe sediment contamination may be readily discernable in both sediment toxicity bioassays and benthic community assessments. However, the impact may be less obvious under conditions of relatively mild contamination and significant variation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2019.109979
Abstract: The sediments of water bodies are not only pollutants sink but also sources of pollution. The assessment for the whole-sediment toxicity is still challenging research. Although the application of immobilized algal bead could overcome the… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4325878
Abstract: DCOIT is an effective antifouling biocide, which presence in the environment and toxicity towards non-target species has been generating great concern. This study evaluated the waterborne toxicity of DCOIT on marine invertebrates (i.e., survival of… read more here.
