Fate and effects of pollutants in coastal ecosystems Clare Bradshaw, Linda Kumblad, Karolina Stark, Ben Jaeschke, Lena Konovalenko, Hanna Ericson, Suzanne Faxneld, Micaela Hellström, Michael Tedengren

Studies at all organizational levelsEcologically important organisms/communities

Lab experiments, mesocosms, in situ studies Genetic markers, proteomics, ecophysiologyEcostoichiometry, ecosystem modelling

Radionucleids, flame retardants, pharmaceutical residues, pesticides etc

e.g. Role of blue mussels for circulation of pollutants, biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in the whole Baltic Sea

Pesticide use - Risk-awareness among farmers and effects on tropical ecosystemsLinda Kumblad, Nadja Stadlinger, Michael Tedengren, Nils Kautsky, Jonas Gunnarsson, Angelina Sanderson

- Banana plantations in Costa Rica- Antibiotic and chemical use in shrimp farming - Rice fields in Tanzania and Vietnam

Tropical seagrass ecology and management Maricela de la Torre-Castro, Johan Eklöf, Sara Fröcklin, Hampus Eriksson, Nils Kautsky

• Seagrass related fisheries• Management of sea cucumber and and sea turtle populations• Social-ecological impacts of seaweed farming• Women's’ role in coastal management and livelihood sustainability• Adaptive capacity of the coastal poor to global climate change
