• Feasting on microplastics: ingestion by and effects on marine organisms (2018, background): “Ingestion is the most likely way by which marine fauna interact with microplastics, especially when the feeding mechanisms of the organisms are nondiscriminatory and do not allow them to differentiate between food and plastic fragments (Lusher et al. 2016).”
• Sampling, Isolating and Identifying Microplastics Ingested by Fish and Invertebrates * (2017, unknown): “2–3 weeks Fish Foekema et al. (2013)75 KOH (10”
• Investigating microplastic trophic transfer in marine top predators. (2018, background): “A study investigating the prey passage time of grey seals found that the majority of fish otoliths (ear bones) could be recovered from scats ~88 h after consumption (Grellier and Hammond, 2006; Lusher et al., 2016).”
• Microplastic litter composition of the Turkish territorial waters of the Mediterranean Sea, and its occurrence in the gastrointestinal tract of fish. (2017, unknown): “2% (Davison and Asch, 2011); 11% (Lusher et al., 2016); 17.”
• Frequency of Microplastics in Mesopelagic Fishes from the Northwest Atlantic (2018, methodology): “We detected a significantly higher occurrence rate of 73% in contrast to previous studies reporting occurrence rates of 11% in the North Atlantic and 9 and 35% in the North Pacific Gyre regions (Boerger et al., 2010; Davison and Ash, 2011).”
• The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris (2020, background): “Feeding near the surface at night and migrating to depths during the day, they might be responsible for the transport and removal of large quantities of microplastics from the surface ocean to the deep sea (Lusher et al 2016, Sun et al 2018, Choy et al 2019).”
