Sous l'effet notamment de l'enrichissement de l'air en gaz carbonique, leur aliment de prédilection, les plantes absorberaient ainsi de plus en plus de carbone [...] Sur plusieurs espèces d'arbres, comme le sapin pectiné des Vosges, l'épaisseur des cernes d'accroissement annuel est en augmentation depuis 1850. Cet effet fertilisant pourrait favoriser l'absorption de 0,3 à 1,5 milliard de tonnes de carbone.  4, record 3, French, - effet%20fertilisant%20du%20gaz%20carbonique

Developing Hormosira banksii embryos, used as bioassays in toxicity studies, identified ammonium as a toxicant in secondary treated sewage effluent discharged at Boags Rocks, Victoria, Australia. Ammonium did not affect fertilization but had a significant effect on germination at 48 h and cell division at 72 h with most damage occurring in the first 48 h. Ammonium showed a similar effect as whole effluent(when expressed as mg N l^-1 ammonium), sampled in June, September and November 1997, on developing H. banksii embryos. This similarity is further confirmed with comparable EC₅₀(concentration causing an effect on 50% of the population tested) and LOEC(lowest observable effect concentration) values. Mean EC₅₀ values for the ammonium bioassays were 3. 19 mg N l^-1 for germination and 6. 14 mg N l^-1 for cell division.  4, record 4, English, - effect%20concentration

Évaluation du rapport dose (concentration)-réponse (effet). L'objectif est de déterminer la concentration en dessous de laquelle la substance ne devrait pas avoir d'effets indésirables sur la composante de l'environnement considérée. Cette concentration est dénommée concentration prévue sans effet (PNEC). Toutefois, il se peut que dans certains cas il ne soit pas possible d'établir une PNEC et il faut alors effectuer une estimation qualitative de la relation dose (concentration)-réponse (effet). Pour calculer la PNEC, on peut appliquer un facteur d'évaluation aux valeurs provenant des essais effectués sur les organismes, par exemple à la DL50 (dose létale médiane), à la CL50 (concentration létale médiane), à la CE50 (concentration effective médiane), à la CI50 (concentration provoquant cinquante pour cent d'inhibition d'un paramètre donné, par exemple la croissance), au NOEL(C) (dose (concentration) sans effet observé), au LOEL(C) (dose (concentration) entraînant l'effet observé le plus faible) ou d'autres méthodes appropriées.  4, record 4, French, - concentration%20effective
