Surface water quality compliance assessment & other river basin management tasks still rely heavily on monitoring programs based on monthly #sampling - despite increasing awareness of the #variability of #contaminant emissions & transport in #rivers & inherent limitations of such an approach.

Standardizing cannabis composition, production methods, and compliance testing is key to ensure patient safety. π§΅ 2/3 #CannabisSafety #Contaminant
Outside those settings, most microbial signals look more like fragmented, and the occasional long fragments often match well-known #contaminant organisms. 7/
β‘οΈ #Microplastics are also a diverse #contaminant suite that are ubiquitous in the Canadian #environment.
β‘οΈ We reviewed reviewed studies across Canada that reported microplastics in #freshwater and #seawater, #sediments, #soils, #air, #snow, and, in biota.

According to risk-benefit assessment, health benefits of fish consumption by Finns outweigh harms associated with #contaminant intake in all age groups. #HealthBenefits include reduction in total mortality and risk of certain cancers as the intake of #FishNutrients increases.

Found the cutest contaminant today! The agar was LB so the pink is from whatever this microorganism is secreting #microbiology #contaminant
Another co-authored paper looked at exposure to #pollutants such as #mercury and other elements. We found a difference between Black-bellied and Wilson's Storm Petrel #contaminant profiles, and found that chicks have different profiles than their parents: doi.org/10.1016/j.sc...
Image shows a sandbox with different layers if sand and clay. Water is flowing through this sand from right to left. Color is added to the water through wells. The color is transported by the water in flow direction.
This is one of my favorite lectures: demonstration of solute transport in #groundwater. The color is advected by water flow in this sandbox experiment as would any #contaminant or even heat. Also very christmassy with the green and red.
Do you have ideas for groundwater demonstration experiments?
can #catchment #contaminant #remediation work out? We did propose a 3 dimensional based to achieve it! https://tinyurl.com/ratzw2x
