Bioaccumulation assessment is a key component of chemical regulations, with fish-based bioconcentration factors (BCFs) serving as the standard metric. Because conventional fish BCF tests (OECD TG 305) require many vertebrates, alternative tests such as the amphipod...
Report no. 8/26: As land-based air pollutant emissions are projected to decline due to sectoral air quality and climate policies, sea shipping emissions under a “business-as-usual” scenario become increasingly important in explaining elevated concentrations of air...
Report no.3/26: This report describes an assessment of the evolving role of mixing zones in European water protection management, including the potential impacts on regulated industry such as fuel manufacturing operations. Mixing zones are designated areas within...
Alternative approaches to traditional animal testing are being promoted to support regulatory chemical risk assessments for environment and human health. The Organisation for Economic Development (OECD) has validated some in vitro test methods, but these methods are...
Mixing zones allow limited exceedances of Environmental Quality Standards within defined areas of receiving waters, yet their implementation across Europe remains uneven and increasingly scrutinised. This study evaluates how environmental change, regulatory evolution,...
