Global mass of buoyant marine plastics dominated by large long-lived debris
The fate of plastics that enter the ocean is a longstanding puzzle. Recent estimates of the
oceanic input of plastic are one to two orders of magnitude larger than the amount measured …

Computing marine plankton connectivity under thermal constraints
Ocean currents are a key driver of plankton dispersal across the oceanic basins. However,
species specific temperature constraints may limit the plankton dispersal. We propose a …
