The increasing use of chemicals to treat farmed salmon against the crustacean ectoparasitic salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) in Norwegian salmon farms is a concern for the authorities, the industry (aquaculture and coastal fisheries) and the public. The proposed project will provide valuable new information about how a keystone species in the marine ecosystem, the commercially and culinary important northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) responds to repeated pulse exposures to combinations of pesticides used for delousing salmon. Marine organisms living in areas with salmon farms could be exposed repeatedly to mixtures of pesticides. Since data on repeated pulse or fluctuating exposures are very rare in the literature, we will investigate the effects of two combination treatments recommended for efficient delousing in Norwegian salmon farms. In parallel to the shrimp experiments, we will evaluate if blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) are sensitive enough to be used for monitoring discharges of the tested chemicals by using valve gape behaviour and accumulation of pesticides.
