JPI Oceans FACTS

We have a new PhD position. Do you want to work with reduction of #plasticpollution in the health care sector and transition to #circulareconomy? Our approach is holistic and interdisciplinary and we always strive to have fun. candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationIni… Please share and RT

Check out our new paper! Using 35 net samples collected in 2016-2017 we confirmed the accumulation of small floating #plastic particles in the South Atlantic Gyre west of 10°E authors.elsevier.com/a/1hFRX,asi63Re

VLIZ recruits: a post doc researcher to join the @HorizonEU project INSPIRE. You will conduct research on the topic of plastic litter, manage tasks, participate in meetings, communicate findings & collaborate with stakeholders. bit.ly/42mW7Z6 #VLIZrecruits #jobsatVLIZ

🌊During the "@jpioceans JA: Ecological Aspects of Microplastics – From Scientific Findings to Political Action" session at @ASLO_Palma2023, the main outcomes of the 6 funded projects were presented: @ANDROMEDA, @microplastix, HOTMIC, @Response_JPIO, @JPIOceansFACTS, i-plastic!

Great presentations by Giuseppe Suaria, Isabel Goßmann and Barbara Scholz-Böttcher presenting results of the @JPIOceansFACTS project in Session SS081B of the @jpioceans Joint Action.

Thank you Fangzhu Wu for kicking-off the @JPIOceansFACTS contributions at #ASLO2023 in the @jpioceans session SS081A-C. Great job presenting the ‘Large scale transport of #microplastics from the European waters to theArctic’

Don’t miss the @jpioceans Joint Action: Ecological Aspects of Microplastics - From Scientific Findings to Political Action Sessions (SS081) at #ASLO2023 in Sala Palma on Tuesday. @JPIOceansFACTS will be represented first by Fangzhu Wu from @AWI_Media at 8:45.

This year's ASLO ASM conference is proving to be a busy event for the ANDROMEDA project! Our researchers & funders will participate across a number of sessions (SS081A, SS081P, & EP00P) that focus specifically on the outcomes of projects funded under the @jpioceans joint action!

Between 4 to 9 June 2023 JPI Oceans will present funded projects of the Joint Actions Blue Carbon and Ecological Aspects of Microplastics at the #ASLO Aquatic Sciences Meeting 2023 in Palma de Mallorca.  👉More information: lnkd.in/eQewjXB8

Hello #GaiaBlu, nice to meet you finally! Looking forward to do some cool research together! @CnrIsmar @CNRsocial_ @CNRDTA

Congratulations to our researcher Dr. Stefano Aliani for his paper recently published on Nature Reviews! This new collaborative study shows how flexible decision-making tools can accelerate validation and harmonisation of methodologies for #plastic monitoring.

Over the years it has been discussed whether #plasticpollution regulation is sufficiently based on science. We unfolded the science behind in our new paper. Thanks for leading Maria. @RegEngrg @nikolineoturai #PlasticsTreaty #microplastics @Richardjcronin microplastics.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…

We have a special love for sediment dwelling critters in our lab. Since #microplastic tend to accumulate in sediment, we propose more focus on this compartment. @MonicaSandgaard did a fantastic job leading this frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

The results of a fantastic expedition are published. We measured #microplastic in Danish coastal waters. Point sources are important for pollution in these waters. Thanks Lily and the AaU crew for driving this sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @marine_plastic @VELUXFONDEN @STOTEN_journal

#Polarstern turns 40!🍾🥳In all its years of service, our research vessel has carried out over 130 successful expeditions to polar regions and has been a temporary home for thousands of researchers from all over the world. Happy Birthday, Polarstern! youtube.com/watch?v=-YK7J_…

New study indicates risks of #polyethylene #microplastic #fibers at realistic environmental concentrations on reproduction of juvenile Japanese medaka with a significant delay in hatching,decrease in certain gene expression & likely effect on sperm quality setac.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

I really love this solution as it may help us up to analyse 95 particles in one instrument run in the future.

How to disseminate research findings about #nanoplastics and #microplastics and support marine #SciComm in Europe? Yesterday coordinators and communicators from @jpioceans Joint Action Ecological Aspects of Microplastics fruitfully discussed joint activities for the coming year
