Trophic cascades promote threshold-like shifts in pelagic marine ecosystems
Fisheries can have a large impact on marine ecosystems, because the effects of removing
large predatory fish may cascade down the food web. The implications of these cascading …

The effects of trophic transfer and environmental factors on microplastic uptake by plaice, Pleuronectes plastessa, and spider crab, Maja squinado
Microplastic pollution is apparent throughout the marine environment from deep ocean
sediments to coastal habitats. Most of this is believed to originate on land, although marine …
