New paper out #Microplastics in beach #sediments of the #Azores archipelago, NE #Atlantic Paper available at: doi.org/10.1016/j.marp… @MfrcATU
📢New paper out! 📢 Our study over 19 sandy beaches in the #Azores shows that grain size and beach orientation play a role in #microplastics (0.1-5mm) concentrations. This work was led by @Clara_BR97 and @ChrisKPham Read it open access👇sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
🔊Check out our new paper @AzoMarineLitter🌊🔊 👉Concentration of #microplastic (0.1-5mm) increases with decreasing grain size 👉Widespread #contamination of microplastics in oceanic islands of the Atlantic Ocean #Openaccess⬇️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
One year later we recovered the sediment trap! During the past year this equipment collected sinking particles reaching the #deepsea, and potentially it will help us to quantify the #microplastics entering the deep sea. Can't wait to see the results!
My first conference! 🥳 Thanks to @isdsc8 for the opportunity. Check out my poster on the impact of abiotic stressors on Lophelia pertusa's early life stages. Very challenging but the best is yet to come 🪸😎 #oceanacidification #bottomtrawling #microplastic #deepseacorals
Our team member @Clara_BR97 has collaborated in two beach cleanups, held in Terceira and Flores islands! These activities aimed to promote the #LixAz project and raise awareness among children and community about the #marinelitter environmental problem 🏝🗑🌊
Our team member @Joaomigpereira is investigating the feeding mechanisms of deep-sea corals in the presence of small fluorescent #microplastics, using high-resolution footage 🗑️🪸📸 For the success of this work we partnered with investigators from @AzoresDeepSea and @iAtlanticEU
Our team organised a workshop on sea turtle necropsy for the Regional Directorate Marine Policies (DRPM). We explained methods developed during the project INDICIT to quantify plastic ingestion in seaturtles. From the 5 turtles (loggerhead and green), 4 had ingested plastic! 🐢🌊
For the past weeks, whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) have been gathering south of Pico Island, feeding on large schools of Macroramphosus scolopax. Our team has taken this opportunity to investigate the quantities of #Plastic within those feeding aggregations! 🐋🐟🗑
This month students from the @UniExeCEC @UoEFieldAzores learnt about the plastic pollution research in the Azores and had the opportunity to try sediment sample collection methods with our team @EmilyDuncan34 @Clara_BR97! 🗑🏝🌊
The #7IMDC #marinelitter conference is coming to an end 🗑️ @ChrisKPham attended this week in Korea to share our teams research on #plasticpollution distribution and impacts within the Azores Archipelago (2 presentations and 4 posters) 🦈🐬🐢🪸🌊🌋
Our team @AzoMarineLitter is participating in #7IMDC!! During this week you can check my #Poster (ID 1120) about the Abundance and typology of #microplastics in the beach sediments of the Azores Archipelago with the collaboration of @OkeanosUac 🏝🗑🌊
Recently our team joined #sailandexplore on an expedition around the central group of the Azores Archipelago. We collected #microplastic samples both at the surface and in the water column as well as educating the crew on plastic pollution & the marine life in the Azores ⛵🌊🗑🐬
Yesterday's fieldwork! 💪🌊📝

For my PhD me and my collegues from @AzoMarineLitter conducted a sea trip to the Condor seamount and deployed a sediment trap at a depth of 230m. This equipment will be collecting sinking particles to assess how #microplastics reach the deep sea. #deepsea #plasticpollution

Volvemos 💪 Queremos invitarles a la Jornada de Presentación de Resultados FINALES del Proyecto Interreg-MAC IMPLAMAC que se celebrará el próximo 26 de octubre 2023 en el Aula Magna de la Facultad de Física y Matemáticas de la #ULL ¡Reserven la fecha!
Back from a fruitful workshop on #Seafloor Litter, organised by @EU_ScienceHub in Sicily! This time, we focussed on monitoring, which will be required to assess the efficiency of a global #plasticsTreaty to reduce #plastic pollution in the #deepsea. Work ahead now! 📷R. Nakajima
Estamos a menos de un mes de las Jornadas de Presentación de Resultados Finales del Proyecto #IMPLAMAC 🔬🥼🌊📊 El próximo 26 de Octubre a las 9:30 horas en el Aula Magna "Blas Cabrera Felipe" en la Sección de Física y Matemáticas de la @ULL Apúntate! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Our research team member @Joaomigpereira is studying the impacts of microplastics in the deep sea as part of his PhD. This equipment collected sinking particles in the past year and will helps identify sinking microplastics.
One year later we recovered the sediment trap! During the past year this equipment collected sinking particles reaching the #deepsea, and potentially it will help us to quantify the #microplastics entering the deep sea. Can't wait to see the results!

Today we say goodbye to our colleague @13Criis from @AchemGroup and @IMPLAMAC partner. She spent the past 3 months working with us on #microplastics contamination in keystone marine species of the #Azores
Had a great time introducing #microplastics as a macro-problem to the public during the #PintOfScience #horta
🚨I'm happy to use my first tweet to share that my presentation has been accepted for #ICESASC23 in Bilbao in September! 🥁Time to drum up anticipation for my #marsocsci talk on fishers' research fatigue in fisheries science contexts 🥁 Not at all nervous or anything...🤫
