Lab tests showed possible harmful health effects of pesticide fluazinam, but industry withheld the results and the substance was approved. A new study from @stockholm-uni.bsky.social exposes structural failures in EU pesticide regulation, and a proposed regulatory omnibus risks making things worse.

A new study led by Carolin Seiferth shares insights from a collaboration between researchers and composers at the Baltic Sea Festival Science Lab 2023. It highlights 3 principles that make art-science collaborations work: safe-enough spaces, embracing the process & joint reflection: buff.ly/UKC2BuC

Hundreds of areas in Swedish marine waters are contaminated by past industrial activities such as sawmills, pulp and paper mills, steelworks and ports. Is it sometimes better to leave contaminated sediments undisturbed until safer solutions are available? www.su.se/balticseacentre/balticbreakfast

Although small and difficult to study, microorganisms play a vital role in sustaining life in the oceans. They are central to nutrient and biogeochemical cycling and help regulate climate gases such as methane. They are also the topic for next Baltic Breakfast! www.su.se/english/divi...

The temporary fishing closures decided by the EU are insufficient to protect the increasingly endangered European eel. This weeks AGRIFISH should take the decisive action advised by @icesmarine.bsky.social for years: a complete fishing ban. New policy memo: www.su.se/english/divi...

How big a risk is it reasonable to take – with our fish stocks, our marine environment, our food security? How seriously do fisheries ministers take their targets? How seriously do the ministers take their own rules? Next week EU’s ministers meet to make a deal on Baltic Sea fisheries 2026.

Management of fisheries in the Baltic Sea has generally failed to meet its objectives. Two recently published scientific articles dive deeper into the reasons. Welcome to a seminar where @hsvedang.bsky.social and Eva Papaioannou present the findings and discuss the implications for future policy!

Total allowable catches for herring in the Gulf of Bothnia would have to be cut by 62% next year in order to comply with the European Union’s rules for highest acceptable risk. That is one conclusion from the assessment of fish stocks and forecasts over MSY presented today by ICES.

Coastal zones are identified as important natural carbon sinks globally, but in brackish environments like the Baltic Sea, knowledge of coastal carbon sequestration is limited. This new study shows that shallow and partly enclosed Baltic bays are significant sinks for carbon and nutrients.

The discussion on regulating #PFAS in the EU is vivid. What came out as a proposal to ban almost all production and use of the substances, might now end up as a less comprehensive regulation. What does science say about the spreading of PFAS and the risks involved? www.su.se/stockholm-un...
