Question for #plasticpollution #litter tweeps - do you know of a paper/report that downloads/exports/pulls crowd-sourced data from MarineDebrisTracker, and uses it to look at spatial or temporal trends? We are interested in how shoreline litter data is being used. Julia Baak, Ph.D.

Callout to the #plastics researchers 🗑️ What are your favourite methods📰for characterizing coastal macrodebris? Our lab (@tonyrwalker1's) has debris from transects & we're looking to develop a list of thorough variables to measure/consider.

‼️ I'm starting a lab at the University of South Florida's College of Marine Science USF College of Marine Science in St. Pete next Summer! We will study microbial interactions in a changing ocean with multi 'omics and microscopy. Opportunities for MS and PhD students, DM! 🦠🧪🔬🌊❤️ #sciencedreams

Our new paper paper in Global Change Biology biology is out. We show that positive interactions between corals and common damselfishes can help corals resist bleaching as the oceans heat up. Learn more here - onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc…

I am ✨delighted✨ to share that I am taking applications for a PhD student for the 23-24 academic year! Candidates interested in social justice, anti-oppressive school psych, &/or critical psych research are encouraged to apply to the #schoolpsychology program Northeastern U. !

A new study STOTEN quantified #microplastics in chemicals & solutions. On average, 24 - 187 particles have been foumd with a size between 26 microns and 2.3 mm. Most of them were fibers. Important findings for QA/QC in MP research. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

It's time to announce the next iteration of the Microplastics Workshop for Early Career Researchers! Abstract submission is now open - looking forward to seeing you in Switzerland this November with an interactive and exciting program 😍 microplasticsworkshop.com

Excited that our recent #openaccess paper in Conservation Biology on ecological #stability and #MPAs is copy and type-set! It's been a blast presenting on this contribution over the past few months. Thanks all for the great questions and interest!

Hey #microplastics peeps - anyone have a good updated methods paper on sediment they are using? For density separation? Thanks in advance 😁
