Open WL Archief (OWA)

Over het archief

Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.

Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract

During the Bremerhaven Workshop, sediment samples from 2 pollution gradients in the North Sea were tested in a 10 d static bioassay with infaunal amphipods. One gradient was downstream from a former drilling site, the second was offshore of the Elbe-Weser plume in the German Bight. Four participating laboratories used basically the same technique to test sediment toxicity with 1 of 3 different amphipod species: Rhepoxynius abronius, Corophium volutator or Bathyporeia sarsi. The measured endpoints were mortality and sublethal effects, including the inability to reburrow after exposure, avoidance and immobilisation. Results show that sediment samples from the stations on each gradient closest to contaminant sources were toxic to nearly all test species. Samples from other stations only caused mortality in the tests witC. volutator.
