Risk-based management framework for microplastics in aquatic ecosystems by Alvine C. Mehinto, Scott Coffin, Albert A. Koelmans, Susanne M. Brander, Martin Wagner, Leah M. Thornton Hampton, Allen G. Burton, Ezra Miller, Todd Gouin, Stephen B. Weisberg, Chelsea M. Rochman

“…Here, we introduce a risk management framework for aquatic ecosystems that identifies four critical management thresholds, ranging from low regulatory concern to the highest level of concern where pollution control measures could be introduced to mitigate environmental emissions. …”

A community-based framework for aquatic ecosystem models by Trolle, D, Hamilton, D, Hipsey, MR, Bolding, K, Bruggeman, J, Mooij, WM, Janse, J, Nielsen, A, Jeppesen, E, Elliott, J, Makler-Pick, V, Petzoldt, T, Rinke, K, Flindt, MR, Arhonditsis, G, Gal, G, Bjerring, R, Tominaga, K, Hoen, J, Downing, A, Marques, D, Jr, F, Sondergaard, M, Hanson, P

“…Through a common forum for aquatic ecosystem modellers we aim to (i) advance collaboration within the aquatic ecosystem modelling community, (ii) enable increased use of models for research, policy and ecosystem-based management, (iii) facilitate a collective framework using common (standardised) code to ensure that model development is incremental, (iv) increase the transparency of model structure, assumptions and techniques, (v) achieve a greater understanding of aquatic ecosystem functioning, (vi) increase the reliability of predictions by aquatic ecosystem models, (vii) stimulate model inter-comparisons including differing model approaches, and (viii) avoid 're-inventing the wheel', thus accelerating improvements to aquatic ecosystem models. …”

Environmental variability in aquatic ecosystems: Avenues for future multifactorial experiments by Miriam Gerhard, Apostolos‐Manuel Koussoroplis, Michael Raatz, Christian Pansch, Samuel B. Fey, Jahangir Vajedsamiei, Maria Calderó‐Pascual, David Cunillera‐Montcusí, Noël P. D. Juvigny‐Khenafou, Francesco Polazzo, Patrick K. Thomas, Celia C. Symons, Meryem Beklioğlu, Stella A. Berger, Rosa M. Chefaoui, Kemal Ali Ger, Silke Langenheder, Jens C. Nejstgaard, Robert Ptacnik, Maren Striebel

“…However, integration of findings that emerge across studies and identification of remaining knowledge gaps in aquatic ecosystems remain critical. Here, we address these aspects by: (1) summarizing relevant terms of variability research including the components (characteristics) of variability and key interactions when considering multiple environmental factors; (2) identifying conceptual frameworks for understanding the consequences of environmental variability in single and multifactorial scenarios; (3) highlighting challenges for bridging theoretical and experimental studies involving transitioning from simple to more complex scenarios; (4) proposing improved approaches to overcome current mismatches between theoretical predictions and experimental observations; and (5) providing a guide for designing integrated experiments across multiple scales, degrees of control, and complexity in light of their specific strengths and limitations.…”
