Microplastic interactions with north atlantic mesopelagic fish
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2015-12-23)Microplastics in the marine environment are well documented, and interactions with marine biota have been described worldwide. However, interactions with vertically migrating fish are poorly understood. The diel vertical ... -
Microplastics in arctic polar waters: the first reported values of particles in surface and sub-surface samples
(Springer Nature, 2015-10-08)Plastic, as a form of marine litter, is found in varying quantities and sizes around the globe from surface waters to deep-sea sediments. Identifying patterns of microplastic distribution will benefit an understanding of ... -
Seamounts in a restless ocean: response of passive tracers to sub-tidal flow variability
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-08-01)The action of sub-tidal oceanic flow impinging on an isolated seamount, and its consequences for biological tracer patterns, was assessed using a three-dimensional ocean circulation model. Passive tracers released above ... -
