To achieve this, we analysed the nematode community in sediment eDNA samples collected in 2018 and 2021 in areas around three offshore oil platforms in the Danish west coast of the North Sea. One training dataset based on eDNA and environmental data from the three platforms in 2021 covering a wide range of environmental gradients has been used as a training dataset to assign the nematodes ASVs to Ecological Groups. These assignments then allowed us to infer the EcoQS both around these three platforms and in an independent dataset (one of the platforms sampled in 2018). The EcoQS inferred from the nema-gAMBI is perfectly in line with the pollution gradient of the platforms. In fact, stations located close to the platforms (i.e., 100 m and 250 m) show a relatively lower EcoQS than those at greater distance (i.e., reference or 3000 m). The nema-gAMBI seems to capture well the EcoQS variability around platforms and correlates well with the environmental parameters (e.g., trace element and hydrocarbon pollution). Indeed, the nema-gAMBI is positively and significantly correlated with the traditional macrofauna-based AMBI.

In co-contaminated areas, MPs may act as carriers for PFOA, complicating transport dynamics. However, information on their cotransport in porous media is limited. This study investigates the transport behaviors of PFOA and PS-MPs in saturated quartz sand columns under varying ionic strength (IS), cation type, and pH. Using the DLVO interaction energy theory and a mathematical model, we analyzed their cotransport. The results demonstrated that PS-MPs inhibited PFOA transport due to hydrophobic adsorption, reducing PFOA mobility. However, at pH 5, PS-MPs facilitated PFOA transport through competitive adsorption on sand surfaces. Conversely, PFOA significantly accelerated PS-MPs transport, likely due to electrostatic repulsion and reduced PS-MPs size. The promoting effect of PFOA on PS-MPs was similar in NaCl and CaCl<sub>2</sub> solutions. It is noteworthy that under acidic conditions, the increased electrostatic attraction between PS-MPs and quartz sand leads to substantial adsorption of PS-MPs onto the quartz sand surface. Under these conditions, PFOA exerts almost no promoting effect on PS-MPs. This study showed that the coexistence of PS-MPs and PFOA would influence the mobility of each other in the saturated porous media.
