The economic costs of seal presence in Swedish small-scale fisheries

Growing seal populations are examples of successful marine management, and the seals are often seen as a symbol of a thriving ecosystem.

This causes both lost catches and broken gear, which negatively affect the economic viability of the small-scale fisheries. While lost catches are known to be su

Can patch testing with methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone be optimized using a new diagnostic mix? – A multicenter study from the Swedish Contact Dermatitis Research Group
