Concerns are being raised that microplastic pollution can have detrimental effects on the
feeding of aquatic invertebrates, including zooplankton. Both small plastic fragments (…

Plastic in the global oceans fulfills two of the three conditions for pollution to pose a
planetary boundary threat because it is causing planetary-scale exposure that is not readily …

In aquatic ecosystems, microplastics are a relatively new anthropogenic substrate that can
readily be colonized by biofilm‐forming organisms. To examine the effects of substrate type …

We collected plastic debris in the Stockholm Archipelago using a manta trawl, and additionally
along a transect in the Baltic Sea from the island of Gotland to Stockholm in a citizen …

Microplastic pollution is currently perceived as an environmental hazard, and adverse
effects have been reported at various levels of biological organization. However, most …

Risk assessment of microplastic (MP) pollution requires understanding biodegradation
processes and related changes in polymer properties. In the environment, there are two-way …

The role of microplastic (MP) as a carrier of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) to aquatic
organisms has been a topic of debate. However, the reverse POP transport can occur if …

Reliable abundance information is the foundation for managing aquatic resources. Species
with low catchability are, however, often overlooked in monitoring programmes. Thus, …

The occurrence of microplastic in the environment is of global concern. However, the
microplastic hazard assessment is hampered by a lack of adequate ecotoxicological methods …

Individual net fat reserves after migration and reproductive investments were calculated for
migrating female silver eels Anguilla anguilla (n = 387) collected in the outlet region of the …
