Modern approaches to marine antifouling coatings
TL;DR: A review of antifouling coatings for the prevention of marine biological fouling can be found in this article, where the authors highlight modern approaches to environmentally effective anti-fouling systems and their performance.
Chemical use in salmon aquaculture: A review of current practices and possible environmental effects
TL;DR: The World Wildlife Fund is facilitating a dialogue on impacts of salmon Aquaculture to establish the state of knowledge in seven subject areas associated with the industry: benthic impacts, nutrient loading, escapees, chemical inputs, diseases, feeds and social issues and to establish international standards for salmon aquaculture practices.

Environmental levels, toxicity and human exposure to tributyltin (TBT)-contaminated marine environment. A review
TL;DR: A review of the state of the science regarding Tributyltin is presented in this paper, with special attention paid to the environmental levels, toxicity, and human exposure. But, data concerning TBT levels in foodstuffs are scarce, and therefore, investigations on experimental toxicity, dietary intake, potential human health effects and development of new sustainable technologies to remove TBT compounds are clearly necessary.

The Responses of Plankton Communities in Experimental Ponds to Atrazine, the Most Heavily Used Pesticide in the United States
TL;DR: This study will demon- strate both the immediate inhibition of certain species and the secondary effects which such a response has on other species, and species with some tolerance to the effects of the chemical will be identified and their role in the changing conditions will be considered.
Antifouling paint booster biocides in the UK coastal environment and potential risks of biological effects.
TL;DR: A comparative assessment to evaluate the risk posed by these compounds to the aquatic environment is described and widespread effects due to Irgarol 1051 and less so diuron cannot be ruled out and more information is required to provide a robust risk assessment.

Toxicity evaluation of single and mixed antifouling biocides measured with acute toxicity bioassays
TL;DR: For mixtures of compound, toxicities were additive in only 33% of the cases and 21% of mixtures were less toxic than expected based on the sum of concentrations of toxicants (antagonistic effect).
