Summary
This Norwegian master's thesis studied the uptake and excretion of polystyrene microplastic particles in the marine copepod Calanus finmarchicus, a key species in North Atlantic food webs. The results help quantify how these abundant zooplankton encounter, ingest, and eliminate microplastics, informing models of plastic transfer through the marine food chain.
