Comparison of artificially weathered Macondo oil with field samples and evidence that weathering does not increase environmental acute toxicity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-05)Macondo source oils and artificially weathered oil residues from 150 °C+ to 300 °C+, including artificially photo oxidized oils, were prepared and used for generating low energy water accommodated fractions (LE-WAFs) in ... -
Developmental effects in fish embryos exposed to oil dispersions – the impact of crude oil micro-droplets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-09)During accidental crude oil spills and permitted discharges of produced water into the marine environment, a large fraction of naturally occurring oil components will be contained in micron-sized oil droplets. Toxicity is ... -
Embryonic exposure to produced water can cause cardiac toxicity and deformations in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) larvae
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-06)Regular discharges of produced water from the oil and gas industry represents the largest direct discharge of effluent into the marine environment worldwide. Organic compound classes typically reported in produced water ... -
North sea produced water PAH exposure and uptake in early life stages of Atlantic Cod
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Produced water discharges from offshore oil and gas platforms represent a significant source of petroleum components such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) released to the ocean. High molecular weight PAHs are ... -
Simulating crude oil exposure, uptake and effects in North Atlantic Calanus finmarchicus populations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-12)A simulation model framework (SYMBIOSES) that includes a 3-dimensional ocean physics and biology model and a model for transport and fate of oil was used to investigate the potential for bioaccumulation and lethal/sublethal ...
