Apitz","doi":"10.1002/ieam.4949","DOIUrl":"10.1002/ieam.4949","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Nearly 20 years ago, SETAC published the results of a Pellston Workshop on methods for assessing and setting sediment quality guidelines (SQGs) and associated tools (Wenning et al., <span>2004</span>). This was done to compile the state of science describing the harmful effects of chemical contaminants in sediments on freshwater and marine aquatic life. Since then, there have been significant advances in sediment ecotoxicology, monitoring methods, and risk assessment practices, as well as management strategies. The definition of “sediment quality” has also evolved and now encompasses more than just toxicity. It considers the chemical and physical characteristics of sediment that contribute to the health of aquatic ecosystems, including the quality of overlying waters and aquatic food chains. Advances have been made in the interpretation of the ecosystem services both provided and affected by sediments (Apitz, <span>2012</span>), as well as environmental baseline values used to identify the nature and extent of environmental changes outside the range of natural variability (Brown et al., <span>2022</span>).</p><p>While sediment sampling methods have changed little over the years, the methods for analyzing and interpreting various biological, chemical, and physical parameters used to evaluate sediment risk have advanced considerably (Bruce et al., <span>2021</span>). Broader and smarter sediment screening methods and advanced analytical chemistry and assessment methodologies capable of providing insights into the drivers of sediment toxicity offer some relief to traditional limitations of sediment quality investigations (Brennan et al., <span>2021</span>; de Baat et al., <span>2019</span>; Feiler et al., <span>2013</span>). Nanosensors and new analytical methods are available for assessing biological contamination, nanopollution, and new and/or emerging chemical substances in sediments and surface waters to support management activities that protect aquatic life and human health (Hairom et al., <span>2021</span>). Passive sampling, toxicity identification evaluation methods, and omics-based eco-surveillance tools have matured considerably and provide data that inform sediment assessment, regulation, and management (Heise et al., <span>2020</span>; Li et al., <span>2018</span>; Shah et al., <span>2019</span>). New methods involving measurements of e-DNA and e-RNA and other molecular biomonitoring tools, less intrusive passive samplers to measure contaminants in sediment porewater, and the determination of metrics of biotic and ecological integrity (e.g., taxonomic richness, composition, and tolerance and/or intolerance indices) provide indispensable information for managing aquatic ecosystems more effectively (Anaisce et al., <span>2023</span>; Giroux et al., <span>2022</span>).</p><p>At the same time, climate change and a relatively new suite of “emerging” contaminants, such as microplastics, nanoparticles, substances in personal care and pharma","PeriodicalId":13557,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ieam.4949","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141418795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Toxicity classifications are based on Occupational Exposure Limits (OEL), which estimate industry workers' exposure conditions and frequency (ASHRAE, <span>2013</span>, <span>2019</span>). Using these exposure limits and acute toxicity exposure limit values set to prevent danger to life or health, the toxicity classifications are based on a threshold, where Class A (lower toxicity) is assigned when the OEL is higher than 400 ppm while Class B (higher toxicity) refrigerants have OELs below this threshold (ASHRAE, <span>2013</span>). In general, refrigerants are not considered to be highly toxic compounds. Table 1 shows that the most commonly used hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) refrigerants are in Class A1, which is an indication of lower toxicity for mammals (“A”) and no flame propagation (“1”) (ASHRAE, <span>2013</span>). Nevertheless, it is important to point out that this toxicity classification only pertains to the parent compound and not necessarily to the precursors used in refrigerant manufacturing or the degradation products resulting from refrigerant emissions or use. Furthermore, the fully fluorinated methyl group (-CF3) in HFOs has prompted their classification as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the United States and Europe (Table 1).</p><p>The newest classes of refrigerants, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and HFOs or halogenated olefins are currently in use due to their low global warming potentials (GWPs) and negligible ozone depletion potentials (ODPs). The addition of hydrogen in HFCs and a double bond in HFOs have helped lower their GWPs. For example, the double bond in HFOs is highly reactive with atmospheric hydroxyl (OH) radicals, which leads to their short atmospheric lifetimes and low GWP. However, because these compounds degrade quickly, they have the potential to create significant yields of various degradation products. One of the most well-known degradation products, particularly from HFCs (e.g., R-227ea) and HFOs (e.g., R-1234yf), is trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), whose classification as an ultrashort PFAS is under considerable debate (Table 1). This classification has policy implications as both the European Commission and the USEPA have signaled their commitments to systematically decrease the usage of PFAS compounds (Glüge et al., <span>2020</span>). Scientific arguments have been made to manage all PFAS compounds together as a chemical class because of their common characteristics of being highly persistent, bioaccumulative, and potentially hazardous (Kwiatkowski et al., <span>2020</span>). Trifluoroacetic acid is the simplest of the perfluorocarboxylic acid (PFCA) group of substances (Burkholder et al., <span>2015</span>) and is generally regarded to be highly persistent in the environment, toxic at elevated concentrations, and bioaccumulative dependin","PeriodicalId":13557,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ieam.4964","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141418796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we describe current approaches to assessing the ecological risks of Se in impaired freshwater systems and outline recommended methods for collecting and analyzing biological and abiotic samples and interpreting data. Because reproductive impairment of fish populations is most commonly used to determine the potential impacts of Se, several biological factors that could affect Se toxicity are explored, including diet, trophic positions, reproductive biology, body size and maturity, migratory movements, and use of seasonal habitats. Measuring Se concentrations in mature eggs is the most reliable metric for estimating potential reproductive impairment in fish populations because the range of toxicity thresholds is relatively narrow for all but a few tolerant fish species. In situations where collecting mature eggs is not feasible, we review the use of alternative fish tissue for estimating potential effects. Factors affecting Se uptake from freshwater are also considered with guidance on collecting abiotic (e.g., water and sediment) and biotic components of aquatic food webs (e.g., macroinvertebrates, biofilm).

The potential of integrating life cycle assessment (LCA) with machine learning has been highlighted in recent studies. This hybrid framework is valuable not only for assessing food supply chains but also for improving them toward a more sustainable system. Yet, an essential step in the optimization process is defining the optimization boundaries, or minimum and maximum quantities for the variables. Usually, the boundaries for optimization variables in these studies are obtained from the minimum and maximum values found through interviews and surveys. A deviation in these ranges can impact the final optimization results. To address this issue, this study applies the Delphi method for identifying variable optimization boundaries. A hybrid environmental assessment framework linking LCA, multilayer perceptron artificial neural network, the Delphi method, and genetic algorithm was used for optimizing the pomegranate production system. The results indicated that the suggested framework holds promise for achieving substantial mitigation in environmental impacts (potential reduction of global warming by 46%) within the explored case study.

However, recent research has emphasized the need for an integrated approach to chemical assessment and environmental management rather than abrupt PFAS substitution, as alternatives may pose similar or greater risks. The PFAS Guide was developed to aid corporations in this critical transition. Its goal is to simplify PFAS identification, safe substitution, and gradual elimination. This study applies the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to assess how perceived usefulness (PU) and ease of use of the PFAS Guide impact corporate intentions to adopt it. Our analysis, based on responses from 104 European companies, demonstrates a positive link between PU, ease of use, and a company's intent to adopt the PFAS Guide. This underscores the importance of corporations perceiving the PFAS Guide as a valuable and user-friendly resource, given its substantial impact on PFAS phase-out. Descriptive statistics revealed an interesting finding: 51.9% of the participants fell into the “other” group, as outlined in the PFAS Guide. This raises questions regarding the grouping of companies into various sectors. Based on our results, we propose improvements to the PFAS Guide by broadening sector representation to encompass a more diverse range of industries with sector-specific guidance, ensuring content relevance, and accentuating user experience using interactive resources. Future research should focus on the actual adoption and use of the guide to gain deeper insights into adoption rates and long-term PFAS Guide utilization. Furthermore, additional investigations should incorporate subgroup analyses, data triangulation, and a longitudinal approach to enhance our understanding of the factors that support and hinder integrated chemical assessment and environmental management. These research efforts are pivotal in guiding chemical policy and management practices, contributing to a PFAS-free future. <i>Integr Environ Assess Manag</i> 2024;20:2175–2188. © 2024 The Author(s). <i>Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management</i> published by Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of Society of Environmental Toxicology &amp; Chemistry (SETAC).</p>","PeriodicalId":13557,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ieam.4968","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141300500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the pursuit of improving the health of freshwater ecosystems, it is imperative to consider their habitat characteristics. To evaluate the impact of habitat variations on lake ecological health, we developed a macroinvertebrate-based multimetric index (MMI) for both the pelagic and littoral zones of Lake Hongze. Additionally, we employed structural equation models to explore the influence of utilization or phytoplankton biomass on ecological health. Historical data served as reference conditions for the pelagic. Seven key attributes were selected for the pelagic MMI, that is, Biological Monitoring Working Party (BMWP), the percentage of Mollusca taxa, the percentage of filter-collector taxa, the percentage of predator taxa, the percentage of gather-collector taxa, and the percentage of sensitive taxa and functional dispersion. The least minimally disturbed conditions and the best attainable conditions were used to develop the littoral. Four key metrics, that is, the percentage of scraper abundance, Mollusca taxa, Biological Pollution Index, and BMWP, were integrated into the littoral MMI. The assessment based on MMI revealed a “poor” health status for the pelagic zone and a “fair” health status for the littoral zone. These findings underscore the high applicability and efficacy of MMIs in assessing and monitoring ecological health in Lake Hongze. Notably, functional feeding groups exhibited heightened sensitivity to disturbance in both zones. Moreover, sediment organic matter strongly influenced the pelagic ecological health, while chlorophyll <i>a</i> and transparency emerged as primary factors influencing the littoral zone, attributable to varying littoral zone utilization. <i>Integr Environ Assess Manag</i> 2024;20:2245–2255. © 2024 SETAC</p>","PeriodicalId":13557,"journal":{"name":"Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141261937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
