Long-Term Field Measurement of Sorption of Organic Contaminants to Five Types of Plastic Pellets: Implications for Plastic Marine Debris

TL;DR: Concerns regarding marine plastic pollution and its affinity for chemical pollutants led us to quantify relationships between different types of mass-produced plastic and organic contaminants in an urban bay and suggest that for PAHs and PCBs, PET and PVC reach equilibrium in the marine environment much faster than HDPE, LDPE, and PP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term sorption of metals is similar among plastic types: implications for plastic debris in aquatic environments.

TL;DR: Overall, this work shows that a complex mixture of metals, including those listed as priority pollutants by the US EPA (Cd, Ni, Zn and Pb), can be found on plastic debris composed of various plastic types.

INTRASPECIFIC VARIATIONS IN δ13C INDICATE ONTOGENETIC DIET CHANGES IN DEPOSIT‐FEEDING POLYCHAETES

TL;DR: To reject the null hypothesis that both juveniles and adults of deposit-feeding species assimilate the same diet and to infer ontogenetic changes in diet, stable carbon isotopes were used as a natural diet tracer and indicated that the gradual change in δ13C with body size was nonlinear.

Metamorphosis of barnacle nauplii: effects of food variability and a comparison with amphibian models

TL;DR: This work conducts a series of experiments to measure the effects of variable food concentration during the naupliar phase on the age, size, and lipid reserves of Balanus glandula cyprids.
