This laboratory animal study tested whether electromagnetic fields (EMFs) representative of controlled-source electromagnetics (CSEM) surveys affect Atlantic cod reproduction and early development. Two single 15-minute exposure experiments were conducted: exposure of males prior to sperm assessment and exposure of…

This animal study examined 50 Hz electromagnetic exposure dominated by a measured magnetic component (~11.15 µT) on cardiac function in Vimba vimba embryos. Using two experimental series, the authors report significant increases in embryonic heart rate with EMF exposure during incubation and during observation. The…
