Uneaten feed pellets and undigested feces deposited beneath the net pens represent a source of contamination for marine organisms. To examine the impacts of long-term and continuous dietary ...

      Farkas, Julia; Nordtug, Trond; Svendheim, Linn Hjelmeland; D Amico, Elettra; Davies, Emlyn John; Ciesielski, Tomasz Maciej; Jensen, Bjørn Munro; Kristensen, Torstein; Olsvik, Pål Asgeir; Hansen, Bjørn Henrik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-05)
      Mining and processing of minerals produce large quantities of tailings as waste. Some countries, including Norway, allow disposal of mine tailings in the sea.

Fish eggs (3 days post fertilisation; ...
