Tairova, Z. & Strand, J. 2022. Biological effect measurements in Gammarus spp. and Corophium volutator as indicators of toxic effects of hazardous substances in Danish coastal waters. Aarhus University, DCE – Danish Centre for Environment and Energy, 24 pp. Technical Report No. 237. http://dce2.au.dk/pub/TR237.pdf
This technical report has been prepared based on an order from the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, Ministry of Environment, with the assignment of assessing the utility of lethal and sub-lethal toxic effect measurements in two amphipods, Gammarus spp. and Corophium volutator, as indicators for toxic stress from environmentally hazardous substances in Danish coastal waters.
This has been done by conducting field and laboratory studies supported by chemical analyses. Results are evaluated in relation to existing national and regional assessment criteria and environmental quality standards.
