Svalbard Winter Plastics Feb 1, 2024 - Mar 31, 2024
To date there are no published studies in the Arctic looking at microplastics contamination across environmental and biological components of local foodwebs, from samples taken at the same locations and times. There is very limited data on microplast... Read More about Svalbard Winter Plastics.

Microplastics in the Ocean: Vertical transfer through intertidal food webs Jun 16, 2021 - Jul 15, 2021
This project aims to better understand the fate of microplastics (plastic fragments of < 5mm) in the marine environment. Microplastics (MP), have been found from highly urbanized areas to the remote Antarctic. It is starting to become clear that MPs...
