A dataset of 41 nests in which the hatching rate was inversely correlated with the increase in the PFAS concentration in unhatched eggs was processed via a categorical regression approach. After outliers identification and removal, categorical regression analysis tested the relationships of the outcomes with the following parameters: perfluoro-nonanoic (PFNA), decanoic (PFDA), undecanoic (PFUdA), and dodecanoic (PFDoA) acids; perfluoroctansulfonate (PFOS); polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) 28, 52, 101, 138, 153, 180; lead (Pb), total mercury (Hgtot), and cadmium (Cd); and other factors, such as \"nest site,\" \"clutch size,\" \"incubation duration,\" and \"nest minimum depth,\" as confounders/modifiers of the hatching rate. Among considered contaminants, PFOS, PFDA, and PFNA only were significant (p ˂ 0.05), as were \"nest site,\" \"clutch size,\" and \"incubation duration,\" confirming their possible role in decreasing the hatching rate of sea turtle eggs. According to a chemical-specific visual strategy, PFOS only showed a typical monotonic dose/response curve, which allowed the identification of provisional hypothetical thresholds of PFOS, 1,386 (CI95 = 1,080-1,692) ng/kg, corresponding to average hatching rates of 93.3% (CI95 = 91.4%-95.2%).

However, these activities may cause contamination to critical water resources. This study investigates the impact of recreational activities on the presence and concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and ultraviolet (UV) filters in drinking water reservoirs in Southeast Queensland, Australia. Polydimethylsiloxane passive samplers were used to monitor 14 lakes over a 3-year period, focusing on seasonal variations and the influence of recreational activities such as petrol-powered boating and swimming. A total of 15 PAHs and six UV filters were detected, with chrysene (97%) and octyl salicylate (34%) being the most prevalent PAH and UV filter, respectively. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon levels were statistically significantly higher in lakes permitting petrol-powered boating, especially during summer (p = 0.005 to 0.05). Lake Maroon and Lake Moogerah were the only sites that showed significantly higher PAH levels in summer (3.9 ± 1.1 and 4.0 ± 1.2 ng L-1, respectively) than winter (1.6 ± 0.61 and 1.5 ± 0.84, respectively). Ultraviolet filters were generally detected in higher levels in lakes allowing swimming, with Lake Moogerah and Lake Sommerset measuring UV filter concentrations of 20 ± 4.1 and 20 ± 11 ng L-1 in summer, respectively. Other lakes that do not permit swimming, such as Lake Maroon and Lake Samsonvale, also exhibited elevated UV filter levels, suggesting illegal swimming. These findings highlight the complexity of PAH and UV filter presence, influenced by multiple factors including lake size, recreational activity type, and seasonal variations. The levels of individual PAHs and UV filters in this study were below established freshwater guidelines.

Research indicates that water scarcity can lead to significant economic output losses (water scarcity risk, WSR), affecting not only the local area (referred to as local water scarcity risk, LWSR) but also causing economic losses to other regions through trade networks (referred to as virtual water scarcity risk, VWSR). With climate change exacerbating this challenge, understanding the water scarcity risk under changing climatic conditions is essential. However, few studies have addressed this issue comprehensively. To fill this gap, we developed a comprehensive model incorporating environmental flow requirements, water withdrawal, supply, economic output, and trade networks to assess LWSR and VWSR among China's provinces under climate change. Our analysis reveals a growth in China's WSR from $4.6 trillion in 2020 to $5 trillion in 2030. Specifically, both local water scarcity risk (LWSR) and virtual water scarcity risk (VWSR) amounted to $0.9 trillion and $3.7 trillion, respectively, in 2020, increasing to $1.0 trillion and $4.0 trillion by 2030. We also identified hot-spot provinces and sectors with high WSR and proposed relevant policy implications. Our findings contribute to China's climate change mitigation efforts, particularly in formulating strategies to address water scarcity risk. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Spatial heterogeneity-based environmental flow requirement is considered. The water scarcity risk of the Chinese agricultural sector in 2017 amounted to $1.1 trillion. LWSR and VWSR are 0.3 and 0.8 $trillion, respectively.

Our results indicated that 3-FLU was negatively linked with FEV₁ and FEV₁/FVC; 1-OHP was negatively linked with FEV₁; 1-PYR was negatively linked with FEV₁ and FVC. In addition, 3-OHP was positively corrected with three lung function parameters. In BKMR and WQS models, PAHs metabolites co-exposure was all negatively corrected with FEV₁ and FVC. Systemic inflammation response index mediated the relationship between I-PYR and FEV₁ as well as FVC, with the 8 % and 6 % proportion. IL-6, STAT3, TNF, and TP53 were screened and validated as the common targets related with PAHs, inflammation and lung function by molecular docking analysis.

In the Brazilian Amazon, high demand for freshwater turtles has led to a growing number of management projects (e.g., protection of nesting beaches) in recent decades. National regulations were also established to allow wildlife farming as a conservation strategy, with a focus on turtles. Amazonas state (Brazil) has the largest turtle farm production output in Brazil, making it well-suited to evaluate the effectiveness of turtle farms in contributing to conservation. We evaluated three criteria for farming to contribute to conservation, as proposed by previous research: (1) whether farmed turtles are substitutes for wild-caught turtles, by looking at people's choices and perceptions of farmed versus wild-caught turtles; (2) whether prices of farmed turtles can compete with prices of wild-caught turtles; and (3) whether the current output from farms is large enough to have a significant effect on the current consumption of turtles. Our findings indicate that while turtle farms may meet the price criterion, people's choices of wild over farmed turtles hinder turtle farms from contributing to conservation. In addition, statewide farm production is approximately 2600 turtles annually. This covers about 2.5 % of consumption in studied sites, based on conservative estimates of one turtle consumed per household annually.
