SYBERAC Case Studies

The SYBERAC work package 2 (WP2), led by the University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM), conducts case studies to advance the understanding of chemical risks in real settings.

CS1 – Cumulative exposure of wildlife to PPP in an agricultural system (winter cereals)
Country and partner involved: UK | UKCEH, Spain | UCLM

CS 1A: Winter cereals (UK)
CS 1B: Winter cereals (Spain)

CS2 – Pollutant transfer and effects in the interface between aquatic and terrestrial environments
Country and partner involved: Spain | UCLM, CSIC

CS 2A: Aquatic/terrestrial (bats)
CS 2B: Aquatic/terrestrial (amphibians)

CS3 – Food chain exposure and related effects across spatial scales in a migratory bird
Country and partner involved: Pan-Europe from Netherlands to Spain | WUR

CS 3: Migratory birds

CS4 – Fate and risk management of multiple chemicals of emerging concern
Country and partner involved: Denmark| AU, Spain | UCLM

CS 4A: Emerging contaminants (secondary fertilisers)
CS 4B: Emerging contaminants (pharmaceuticals and vultures)

CS5 – Plant protection product (PPP) effects on soil biodiversity and on ecosystem function of soil invertebrate community
Country and partner involved: Portugal | UC, UK | UKCEH

CS 5: Soil fauna

CS6 – Pressure of pollutants transported from emission sources into nature-protected areas
Country and partner involved: Netherlands | RIVM
