Many congrats to my PhD student, Thea Braford @TheaB_ecology for winning the Silver Award at the Greater Bay Area STEM Excellence Award 2023 (Hong Kong) , based on her inventions of eco-engineered solutions for artificial shoreline restoration. 👍👍🎉🎊🥂

Our new study showed toxicity of ZnO nanoparticles to mussel can be jointly influenced by temperature & salinity. High temp. & salinity raised agglomeration but lowered dissolution of ZnO-NPs. Such property changes enhanced their accumulation. Free paper: authors.elsevier.com/c/1h8RlB8ccyYKN

Our new paper Environmental Science & Technology Journals reports trophodynamics of perfluoroethylcyclohexane sulfonate isomers in a marine food web & 6:2 & 8:2 chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonates exhibited higher trophic magnification factors than all PFOS isomers. It is an open access paper 😄Enjoy!

Environmental Science & Technology Journals we found levels of tetra/penta/hexa-BDEs in bubbler of cetaceans in Hong Kong waters decreased between 2013−2020 due to their ban in China. Based on correlation, metabolism of tetra-BDE maybe possible source of Me-MeO-tetra-BDE in cetaceans. tinyurl.com/4y2unk2u

We show a ban of harmful chemicals can effectively reduce their tissue levels in dolphins. However, we do see increases of emerging chemicals 😩

Very glad😄 to publish the proceedings of 2nd BECoME Conference as special issue in Regional Studies in Marine Science; glad to dedicate this conference to Prof Brian Morton, the father of marine conservation of Hong Kong. Free access to our Editorial📔: authors.elsevier.com/a/1hFi08MvAty1…

Thank you Grant - what a lovely picture of two handsome men 🤣👍👍👍

Very delighted 😁 to publish our paper in #NatureWater today, and be part of this #WorldHarbourProject to develop and validate more effective molecular markers 🧬for monitoring human’s faecal contamination🔬🦠🧫 Download and read our paper: rdcu.be/dVS4l

Very delighted to publish this important review and metadata analysis paper to reveal the pharmaceutical pollution in world’s estuaries ☺️ @Marine_SKLMP College of Science, CityU CityU Department of Chemistry CityU Hong Kong

Glad 😁 that #Nature reported our paper as "Sewage lurks in coastal waters — often unnoticed by widely used tests”:  nature.com/articles/d4158…🧬🔬🦠🧫 Download and read our #NatureWater paper: rdcu.be/dVS4l before end of Oct

Very happy! 😁My doctoral student (now my postdoc) participated in a national scientific research project and take the Jiaolong submarine to dive to a depth of 4,700m to collect various environmental samples to study the distribution of emerging pollutants in deep sea. 👍👍👍🧑‍🔬🧪

Glad 😊to share our new paper which confirms eco-engineered panels (from ECOncrete can significantly enhance both alpha and beta biodiversity on vertical seawalls in subtropical Hong Kong. @Marine_SKLMP CityU Hong Kong School of Energy and Environment, CityUHK CityU Department of Chemistry View paper 📃: shorturl.at/qGMOQ

You are cordially invited to join the BECoME-2025 Conference🙏🙏👍👍

Glad to share our new paper in #WaterResearch, titled “Rubber-derived chemicals (RDCs) in urban sewer networks and receiving waters”. We examined 45 RDCs in Hong Kong's municipal sewer networks & yielded some interesting findings. Link to Read Our Paper: authors.elsevier.com/c/1kxG79pi-hqTF

Happy 😊 to share a new paper in #MarinePollutionBulletin: as “Turning riprap into reefs: Integrating oyster shells into shoreline armouring”. We show that cured, native shells can be used for enhancing marine biodiversity on seawalls. To Read our Paper: authors.elsevier.com/c/1kwY2,asiDhOq

Our new research published in Microbiome discovers that everyday chemicals 🧪and pharmaceuticals 💊could shape microbial communities 🧫🦠in house dust, and harbour more antibiotic resistant bacteria on the dust causing health concern. Read our paper: doi.org/10.1186/s40168…

What a wonderful initiative! 👍👍Hong Kong’s trawling ban has demonstrated a great success in leading to recovery of benthic biodiversity, benthic ecosystem and demersal fishery resources. See: nature.com/articles/s4200…
