Freshwater fish and invertebrates are underrepresented in thermal tolerance data.
We built ThermoFresh: >6800 records, >900 species in 5 languages. A key resource for studying thermal risks in freshwaters.

New paper by Martin Scheringer and Ralf Schulz: "The State of the World's Chemical Pollution".
link: doi.org/10.1146/annurev-envi…
The review covers pesticides and PFAS, and calls for a chemicals transition to reduce pollution impacts.
New article from our doctoral researcher @ Agnes Schöndorfer on the Long-term consequences of Bti applications on aquatic insect emergence published in the Journal: Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety.

We should have many more events like these where science intersects with public and art
What an inspiring concert from the @TheaterAugsburg on WATER and Climate Changes! It was a privilege to be part of this unique event, where the public and music met science. Thanks for your presence, Jürgen K. Enninger @bayernkreativ.

ALT • Model predicts Chironomidae response across generations, stages, and latitudes. • Emergence reduction stronger with prevalence of early-instar larvae. • Emergence reduction twice as severe in the 2nd year of Bti application. • Model adaptable to other insects, chemicals, latitudes via adjusted parameterisation.

The research, conducted through laboratory microcosm experiments, found that while chironomid larvae bioturbation did not significantly affect CH₄ emissions, biocide treatment resulted in higher emissions, suggesting a complex interaction between biotic factors and chemicals
