Project: Effects of mining particles on marine life

[DiTail @di_tail]

Sampling copepodites exposed to mine tailings, particles and copper singly and in combination to assess modes of toxic action. @SINTEF_Ocean #forskningsradet #Mining #Calanus #copepods

[BHHansen @BjrnHenrikHans1]

Today we started exposure experiment with mine tailings on #copepod #Calanus finmarchicus stage CV @SINTEF_Ocean on the @di_tail project. We are assessing modes of #toxicity from metals, chemicals and particles singly and in combination.

Julia Farkas: Calanus finmarchicus fill their stomachs consuming CaCO3 mine tailings and stops growing #SetacHelsinki #SETAChelsinki @di_tail

Zebra worms or mosquito larvae?? 🐟Busy days in the lab with thousands of hatchlings! 🐟#Codlarvae #Gadusmorhua These are from the low #MineTailings exposure #Fishexperiments #Science #Forskning

Haddock eggs ready for #MineTailings exposure after 3 days of acclimation #FishExperiments #Forskning #Science

We just received #fisheggs for #toxicitytesting of #MineTailings. Images from today's initial pretest. Tailing attachment, buoyancy, respiration and various molecular end points will be studied. #FishExperiments #Cod #Haddock #Science #Forskning

We also have an article about the roundness of mineral particles in subsea tailings from copper mining in Repparfjord https://t.co/q2ScxTmaX3

In the @di_tail project we will characterize mine tailings and study their transport and spreading potential in marine fjord systems using the #DREAM model (Dose-related Risk and Effects Assessment Model, https://t.co/bM6HWOgvmF) #RiskAssessment #EnvironmentalModelling

Preparing for #fishexperiments! Linn and Julia are testing the Loligo microplate oxygen system for #respirometry using lumpsucker eggs from the #PWexposed

In the DiTail project we are studying the effects of mine tailings released to the marine environment. The project is a collaboration between @Norduniversitet, @SINTEF_Ocean, @NTNU, DEBtox Research, BioTrix and The University of Chile. https://t.co/U3QxajEyBI
