High rates of organic carbon burial in fjord sediments globally

Fjords have been hypothesized to be hotspots of organic carbon burial. A global compilation of organic carbon data and sedimentation rates shows that fjords sequester twice as much carbon as other ocean regions.

A Rate-Theory Approach to Irradiation Damage Modeling with Random Cascades in Space and Time

A modification of the “rate theory” approach to point defect balance modeling is considered in which the production term is written to explicitly capture the discrete occurrence of distinct displacement damage...

Radiation-induced bystander effects in the Atlantic salmon (salmo salar L.) following mixed exposure to copper and aluminum combined with low-dose gamma radiation

Very little is known about the combined effects of low doses of heavy metals and radiation. However, such “multiple stressor” exposure is the reality in the environment. In the work reported in this paper, fi...

Physiological and Biochemical Effects of Lithium in Rainbow Trout

The physiological responses of juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) to lithium (as LiCl) in moderately hard freshwater (CaCO₃ = 120–140 ppm, Na⁺ = ∼0.6 mM) were studied. The study employed a 15-day step-u...

Considerations for Proteomic Biomarkers in Rainbow Trout Ecotoxicology

The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is one of the most extensively researched and characterised species of fish. In addition its low tolerance to poor water quality has established it as one of the most usefu...

Minimising aerobic respiratory demands could form the basis to sub-lethal copper tolerance by rainbow trout gill epithelial cells in vitro

Mechanisms of Cu tolerance were investigated in respiratory epithelial cell cultures, from rainbow trout gills, by studying O₂ consumption and protein synthesis rates, intracellular Na concentration and TER. The ...

Void and Dislocation Microstructure Development in Heteroepitaxial Film Growth

Two dimensional, non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to examine the microstructures of both homoepitaxial and heteroepitaxial thin films grown on single crystal substrates. The p...

Autologous human B and T lymphoblastoid cell lines

HUMAN lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) have been derived from patients with acute and chronic leukaemias as well as from normal individuals^1–3. Most of these LCLs express characteristics of bone marrow-derived (B...
