1 Ingestion of microplastics by zooplankton in the western English Channel Alice Wilson McNeal 1 ; Matthew Cole 2 ; James Clark 1 ; Pennie Lindeque 1 1. Plymouth Marine Laboratory. 2. University of Exeter.
2 Microplastic ingestion by zooplankton: what we know Occurs in a range of taxa under laboratory conditions Significantly reduces algal feeding in many groups Negatively affects feeding behaviour, fecundity and mortality in the copepod Calanus helgolandicus Suspected to have negative impacts on other ecologically and commercially important species Cole, M. et al (2013) Microplastic ingestion by zooplankton. Environ Sci Technol ; Cole, M. et al (2015) The impact of polystyrene microplastics on feeding, function and fecundity in the marine copepod Calanus helgolandicus. Environ Sci Tehcnol 49 (2)
3 What we don t know Is microplastic of a size bioavailable to zooplankton present in the ocean? Are zooplankton ingesting microplastics in their natural environment? Is this happening frequently enough to be worthy of concern?
4 Sampling area Plymouth
5 Presence of ingestible microplastics in the ocean Objective 1: determine the bioavailability of microplastics to invertebrate biota Are smaller microplastics missed by conventional sampling? 500 μm 335 μm 100 μm
6 Presence of ingestible microplastics in the ocean
7 Presence of ingestible microplastics in the ocean
8 Presence of ingestible microplastics in the ocean
9 Presence of ingestible microplastics in the ocean Gulf of Maine, USA Plymouth, UK
10 How much microplastic is there?
11 How much microplastic is there? Huge numbers of translucent fibres were found at the mouth of the Plym (station D) Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy identified these as rayon Not plastic, but physical effects could be similar An average of fibres were found per cubic metre Are concentrations of microplastics in laboratory experiments ecologically relevant?
12 How much microplastic is there? Can we extrapolate?
13 Sampling with smaller mesh Using 63 μm nets, we can quantify even smaller microplastics Six sites selected with hydrodynamic models and sampled across a one year time series
14 Ingestion in the natural environment Objective 2: determine whether zooplankton in these waters are ingesting microplastics Collect zooplankton samples alongside microplastic trawls 63 μm for microplastics 200 μm for zooplankton distribution 200 μm for microplastic ingestion
15 Ingestion in the natural environment Groups of Calanoid copepods and decapod zoea are enzymatically digested Removes biological material without damaging any microplastics Why these animals? Why large groups? CaRMS Photogallery, 2011

17 Preliminary results Trial: three groups of 20 decapod larvae >1mm (Brachyura) Three fibres and a one fragment found, between 20 and 80 μm Contamination <20 μm found on controls excluded from results Cannot exclude when looking at smaller animals with smaller prey CaRMS Photogallery, 2011
18 The abundance of microplastics The incidence of ingestion Whether zooplankton are ingesting microplastics frequently enough to have ecological impacts The distribution of zooplankton
19 Summary Marine microplastic pollution could be a far greater problem than previously estimated due to sampling bias Sampling with smaller mesh sizes would be ideal, but impractical in highly productive regions Microplastics of an ingestible size are bioavailable to marine zooplankton Preliminary results suggest they are being ingested With more data we can establish the extent of this, and hence the risk to populations, ecosystems, and humans
