If you are interested to apply for a visiting researcher grant to our laboratory on Helgoland, please contact me. It is a great experience. Just ask @Win_OpenData whom visited us by it last year. @HIDAdigital @AWI_Media #SETACMircoplastics

1/ In our new study with @MicroPlastic101, we found high #microplastic levels in #Arctic ice algae. Magnitude higher levels vs seawater indicate trapping. Upon ice melting, the algae form fast-sinking clumps that can reach the seafloor in a day. doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.2c08…

We´ve reached the last installment of our Heincke videos, you can check a short behind-the-scenes of the MUC sediments sampling here: jpi-oceans-facts.eu/heincke#… #microplastics #research #northsea

In the future, you won't have to believe any correlations below 0.9 because our databases will be that extensive. Little sneak peek at how good you can really get matches (even for noisy reflectance measurements). S/O to @HIDAdigital and @primpke for making this possible.

I hope I managed to channel science towards civil society and delegates during yesterday’s informal information session to inform a science-based #INC1 process. #PlasticsTreaty #plastic
#AWI-Wissenschaftlerin @MelanieBergma18 sprach gestern als Teil der deutschen Delegation bei den Verhandlungen zum #UN #PlasticsTreaty in Uruguay bei einer Informationsveranstaltung, um den neuesten Wissensstand in den #INC1 Prozess einzubringen. 📸Maike Lorenz

Like the poster presentations at #MICRO2022 but given that everyone has 10 min to talk, a normal presentation would work much better online than staring at a pdf of a poster.
