Understanding the influence of multiple pollutant stressors on the decline of freshwater mussels in a biodiversity hotspot

SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 773, 144757.

By: W. Cope  n, C. Bergeron n, J. Archambault n, J. Jones*, B. Beaty*, P. Lazaro n, D. Shea n , J. Callihan n, J. Rogers*

author keywords: Unionidae; Habitat; Metals; Organic contaminants; Clinch River
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Bivalvia; Environmental Monitoring; Environmental Pollutants; Fresh Water; Tennessee; Virginia; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR: This study revealed that PAHs and Mn are important pollutant stressors to mussels in the Clinch River and that they are largely being delivered through the Guest River tributary watershed. (via Semantic Scholar)

Contaminants in tropical island streams and their biota

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, 161, 615–623.

By: E. Buttermore n, W. Cope  n, T. Kwak n , P. Cooney n, D. Shea n  & P. Lazaro n

Contributors: E. Buttermore n, W. Cope n , T. Kwak n , P. Cooney n, D. Shea n  & P. Lazaro n

author keywords: Fish; Pollution; Puerto Rico; River
MeSH headings : Animals; Biota; Environmental Monitoring; Humans; Islands; Pesticides / analysis; Polychlorinated Biphenyls / analysis; Puerto Rico; Rivers; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR: The Bigmouth Sleeper Gobiomorous dormitor, an important piscivorus sport fish, accumulated low levels of organic contaminants in edible muscle tissue and may be most suitable for human consumption island‐wide; only mercury at one site (an urban location) exceeded EPA's consumption limit of 3 meals/month for this species.

2011 journal article

Assessing water quality suitability for shortnose sturgeon in the Roanoke River, North Carolina, USA with an in situ bioassay approach

JOURNAL OF APPLIED ICHTHYOLOGY, 27(1), 1–12.

By: W. Cope n , F. Holliman*, T. Kwak n , N. Oakley*, P. Lazaro n, D. Shea n , T. Augspurger*, J. Law n ...

Contributors: W. Cope n , F. Holliman*, T. Kwak n , N. Oakley*, P. Lazaro n, D. Shea n , T. Augspurger*, J. Law n, J. Henne*, K. Ware*

TL;DR: This study indicates that conditions in the Roanoke River are incongruous with the needs of juvenile shortnose sturgeon and that fathead minnows, commonly used standard toxicity test organisms, do not adequately predict the sensitivity of shortn Nose Sturgeon. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Acute and chronic toxicity of pesticide formulations (atrazine, chlorpyrifos, and permethrin) to glochidia and juveniles of Lampsilis Siliquoidea

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 26(10), 2101–2107.

By: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope  n, M. Barnhart*, S. Mosher n, P. Lazaro n & D. Shea n 

Contributors: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope n , M. Barnhart*, S. Mosher n, P. Lazaro n & D. Shea n 

author keywords: herbicides; insecticides; early life stage; growth
MeSH headings : Animals; Atrazine / toxicity; Bivalvia / drug effects; Bivalvia / growth & development; Chlorpyrifos / toxicity; Larva / drug effects; Permethrin / toxicity; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR: Theatrazine formulation (Aatrex) was more toxic than technical‐grade atrazine in chronic tests with juvenile L. siliquoidea, and acute and chronic toxicity of technical‐ grade pesticides were similar to the toxicity of pesticide formulations. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Acute and chronic toxicity of technical-grade pesticides to glochidia and juveniles of freshwater mussels (Unionidae)

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 26(10), 2086–2093.

By: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope  n, C. Eads n, P. Lazaro n, M. Barnhart* & D. Shea n 

Contributors: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope n , C. Eads n, P. Lazaro n, M. Barnhart* & D. Shea n 

author keywords: herbicides; insecticides; fungicides; early life stage; sodium chloride
MeSH headings : Animals; Bivalvia / drug effects; Bivalvia / growth & development; Fresh Water; Larva / drug effects; Pesticides / toxicity; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR: The relative risk associated with acute exposure of early life stages of mussels to technical‐grade atrazine, pendimethalin, fipronil, and permethrin is likely low; however, survival and growth results with juvenile L. siliquoidea indicate that chronic exposure to high concentrations (≥3.8 mg/L) of atrazin may have the potential to impact mussel populations and warrants further investigation.

Influence of water quality and associated contaminants on survival and growth of the endangered Cape Fear shiner (Notropis mekistocholas)

Hewitt, A. H., Cope, W. G., Kwak, T. J., Augspurger, T., Lazaro, P. R., & Shea, D. (2006, September). ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, Vol. 25, pp. 2288–2298.

By: A. Hewitt n, W. Cope  n, T. Kwak n , T. Augspurger*, P. Lazaro n & D. Shea n 

Contributors: A. Hewitt n, W. Cope n , T. Kwak n , T. Augspurger*, P. Lazaro n & D. Shea n 

author keywords: biomonitoring; in situ toxicity; endangered species; water quality; Cape Fear shiner
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Conservation of Natural Resources; Cyprinidae / growth & development; Cyprinidae / physiology; North Carolina; Population Dynamics; Rivers; Water Pollutants, Chemical / adverse effects; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollution / adverse effects; Water Pollution / analysis
TL;DR: A generalized hazard assessment showed that certain sites exhibited trends in cumulative contaminant presence with reduced fish survival and growth, thereby enabling the identification of the existing riverine habitat most suitable for reintroduction or population augmentation of this endangered fish.
