This animal study examined thornback ray embryos chronically exposed to alternating-current electromagnetic fields (1.8–4.6 μT) across embryogenesis (~20 weeks), relevant to subsea power cables. Exposed embryos showed higher activity levels than non-exposed embryos, while no differences were reported for development…

This study examined whether electromagnetic fields (EMF) similar to those from offshore renewable subsea export cables affect coastal invertebrates. It simulated a 500 μT EMF and measured righting reflex and selected physiological markers in four species. The authors report no significant behavioural or physiological…
